摘要
A rare cause of clitoral hypertrophy in a child is neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). Although evaluation, including karyotype and hormonal studies, is necessary to exclude ambiguous genitalia, the diagnosis of neurofibromatosis as a possible cause of clitoromegaly may help avoid lengthy and sometimes invasive interventions.
