ABSTRACT |
Type 2 Neurofibromatosis(NF2) is one of the neurocutaneous syndromes and it had been formaly separated from the more common type 1 neurofibromatosis(von-Recklinghausen's disease), after the National Institute of Health(NIH) Consensus Development Conference Statement of on Neurofibromatosis in 1987. The diagnostic criteria for type 2 neurofibromatosis(NF2) are met if a person has(1) bilateral eighth nerve masses seen with computed tomographic scanning or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or (2) a first-degree relative(parent or sibling) with type 2 neurofibromatosis (NF2) and either unilateral eighth nerve masses or one of the following : neurofibroma, meningioma, glioma, schwannoma, or juvenile posterior subcapsular lenticular opacity. We have recently experienced a case of typical type 2 neurofibromatosis(NF2). The patient was a 31 years old female who had noticed a bilateral vestibular schwannomas, multiple intra cranial meningioma, bilateral trigeminal neurinomas, large spinal schwannoma in sacrum and mutiple small spinal schwannomas, and multiple cutaneous nodules.
