Abstract
With fifteen strict regional MPNSTs in the fourteen years since our previous population study an annual incidence of above 1 per 1000 NF1 patients has now been maintained over a 27-year period. No significant increase in risk of MPNST in females compared to males was found, though the difference in survival is intriguing. Male survival is particularly poor with <10% alive at 10Â years.
