Our linkage studies showed that linked markers/haplotypes show the same result as careful clinical examination in familial cases of NF1, although contradictory results were obtained in two families where linkage data showed the NF1 risk haplotype in a healthy child of an affected parent. One explanation may be that the children were affected but were still at a presymptomatic stage. This would be exceptional, as all our affected cases (reported separately) had developed café au lait macules by the age of 5 years (96% of all patients), and similar observations have been made in earlier reports.<ref name="urlEpidemiology of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) in northern Finland | Journal of Medical Genetics">{{cite web |url=https://jmg.bmj.com/content/37/8/632 |title=Epidemiology of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) in northern Finland | Journal of Medical Genetics |format= |work= |accessdate=}}</ref><ref name="pmid3145091">{{cite journal |vauthors=Huson SM, Harper PS, Compston DA |title=Von Recklinghausen neurofibromatosis.

_CausesOne of the potential etiologies for non-familial Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1) is increasing parental age. We sought to evaluate recent evidence for parental age effects in NF1 in a large study. Individuals with NF1 and a comparison group from the U.S. general population born between 1994 and 2012 were ascertained from the NF1 Patient Registry Initiative (NPRI) and the National Center for Vital Statistics, respectively.[1]
Sporadic neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1) occurs in the absence of a family history of the disease and usually results from a new mutation in the germ cell of one of the parents, most commonly the father.[2][1]
50% of cases of neurofibromatosis type 1 are familial (inherited) and the remainder arise from a de novo NF1 mutation.[1][3]
Our linkage studies showed that linked markers/haplotypes show the same result as careful clinical examination in familial cases of NF1, although contradictory results were obtained in two families where linkage data showed the NF1 risk haplotype in a healthy child of an affected parent. One explanation may be that the children were affected but were still at a presymptomatic stage. This would be exceptional, as all our affected cases (reported separately) had developed café au lait macules by the age of 5 years (96% of all patients), and similar observations have been made in earlier reports.[4][5] Another explanation would be that even though the affected parents in both families fulfilled the NIH diagnostic criteria for NF1 (in the first family CFS and freckles, and in the second family neurofibromas and Lisch nodules), they both have another type of NF which is not linked to the NF1 gene. A third explanation would be mosaicism in a parent with NF1 in whom some of the germ cells do not carry the NF1 mutation. A fourth explanation would be non-penetrance of theNF1 mutation in the children in question, which has previously been reported in only three cases, a 50 year old woman who had an affected brother, son, and grandson,[4][6] a 45 year old man with an affected mother and daughter,[4][6] and a subject with an affected father and two affected daughters.[4][7] Although non-paternity is not probable, one should exclude it with other markers. The finding of possible non-penetrance in the two families in this series will be finally answered only after the families' NF1mutation has been found.
