Аннотация
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.
