Hi lybrate-user,
I appreciate you seeking help. Neurofibromatosis is a genetic disorder. Surgery cannot completely cure the same but it can help treat complications arising out of neurofibromas, if any. However, Neurofibromatosis can be controlled successfully using natural medicine, and appropriate dietary/ nutrition support which can slow down/ arrest the disease progression as contextually possible. You can consult with complete details, for further traction. Take care & best wishes.
