“…In the bone manifestation of NF-1, spinal deformities account for approximately 60% of skeletal abnormalities. These deformities include scoliosis, kyphoscoliosis, costal deformities, and vertebral deformities such as spondylolisthesis, scalloping of vertebral borders, thinning of pedicles, enlargement of intervertebral foramen, and vertebral canal [9]. Scoliosis caused by NF-1 can be classi ed into two types: dystrophic and non-dystrophic.…”

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF-1) is a genetic disease that affects multiple organs and systems, leading to various clinical manifestations. In NF-1, rare intrathoracic meningoceles often occur alongside bone dysplasia. These meningoceles contain cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and can be mistakenly diagnosed as 'pleural effusion'. In this case report, we mistakenly identified 'cerebrospinal fluid' as 'pleural effusion' and proceeded with drainage. This error posed significant risks to the patient and holds valuable implications for the future diagnosis and treatment of similar patients.

“…It is noted that many patients present with various spinal deformities, including scoliosis, kyphoscoliosis, costal deformities, and vertebral deformities such as spondylolisthesis, scalloping of vertebral borders, thinning of pedicles, enlargement of intervertebral foramen, and vertebral canal [ 26 ]. In our imaging analysis, 95% of the patients exhibited different levels of spinal deformity, with one patient having a history of spinal deformity correction surgery.…”

“…Pleural effusion is a commonly observed condition in clinical practice, often associated with various underlying diseases. Despite advancements in diagnostic techniques, approximately 20% of pleural effusions still have an uncertain origin [ 26 ]. Thoracoscopy, a routine procedure, can be performed to identify the cause of unknown pleural effusions.…”

Background Neurofibromatosis type 1 is a genetic disease that affects multiple organs and systems, leading to various clinical manifestations. In Neurofibromatosis type 1, rare intrathoracic meningoceles often occur alongside bone dysplasia. These meningoceles contain cerebrospinal fluid and can be mistakenly diagnosed as ‘pleural effusion’. Case presentation In this case report, we mistakenly identified ‘cerebrospinal fluid’ as ‘pleural effusion’ and proceeded with drainage. This error posed significant risks to the patient and holds valuable implications for the future diagnosis and treatment of similar patients. Conclusions In patients with Neurofibromatosis type 1 complicated by spinal deformity, there is a high incidence of intrathoracic meningoceles. Treatment strategies may differ based on the specific features of the lesions, and collaboration among multiple disciplines can significantly improve patient outcomes.
