2. Introduction - Objective
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is one of themost fascinating and common human mendelian disorders, affecting approximately one in 3000 persons
Mutations of the NF1 gene lead to abnormal tumor suppression. Consequently, patients with NF1 have an increased prevalence of benign and malignant neoplasms throughout the body
The abdominal neoplasms in NF1 can be divided into five basic categories: neurogenic tumors, neuroendocrine tumors, nonneurogenic gastrointestinal mesenchymal tumors, embryonal tumors, and miscellaneous tumors
This case was one of the small bowel malignant neoplasms with NF-1: Neuroendocrine tumor

4. Results
Surgical exploration : the small intestine Intussusception (entero-enteric) with tumor (fig b)
A bowel resection, carrying the affected bowel and the cecum, was performed
The anatomo-pathology study was Carcinoma not differentiated ulcerated on the surface (the muscular, the sub-serous) with vascular emboli and perinervous catheterization. Of healthy excision with ganglion metastases (5 +/- 15). The appearance is in favor of a high-grade neuroendocrine tumor. The tumor was diagnosed as NET G3
The postoperative sequences are simple
The patient refused the chemotherapy, she was lost to view
She was admitted 8 months later with maligant ascites ,peritoneal carcinomatosis and liver metastases. She died 24 hours later
