Abstract:
Patients with type Ⅱ neurofibromatosis often have multiple neurological tumors, including schwannoma, meningioma, astrocytoma and ependymoma, of which bilateral vestibular schwannoma is characteristic lesion. More than 90%of familial cases and 80%-85%of sporadic cases of type Ⅱ neurofibromatosis have been confirmed to have neurofibromatosis Ⅱ gene mutations in both tumor tissues and blood. This article reviews the relation of type Ⅱ neurofibromatosis with different types of tumors, and the incidence, natural history and latest treatment strategies of type Ⅱ neurofibromatosis, in order to provide new clues for diagnoses and treatments of patients with type Ⅱ neurofibromatosis complicated with multi-type tumors.
