[An intrathoracic meningocele in von Recklinghausen's disease. A case report].
Posterior mediastinal tumors in young people are most often neurogenic. The presence of a meningocele has occasionally been described as causing mass in the region and cases reported have mainly been in patients with neurofibromatosis. We describe a patient with type I neurofibromatosis and intrathoracic meningocele.
