Clitoromegaly as first presentation of a neurocutaneous syndrome in a 3-year-old girl

Although evaluation, including karyotype and hormonal studies, is necessary to exclude ambiguous genitalia, the diagnosis of neurofibromatosis as a possible cause of clitoromegaly may help avoid lengthy and sometimes invasive interventions.
