Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Numerous angiofibromas on the face are commonly associated with tuberous sclerosis or multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1. We present a healthy 66-year-old female with numerous facial angiofibromas, without evidence of tuberous sclerosis, multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1, or any of the less common syndromes associated with many angiofibromas on the face. To our knowledge, there have been no previously reported cases of patients with numerous facial angiofibromas who did not have an associated genodermatosis.
