Purpose
OBJECTIVES:
I. Define the growth rates and clinical course of NF2-related tumors in patients with neurofibromatosis type 2. Associate growth rate with physical function.
| Condition |
|---|
|
Schwannoma, Vestibular Neurofibromatosis 2 Meningioma |
| Study Type: | Observational |
| Study Design: | Observational Model: Natural History Time Perspective: Longitudinal |
| Estimated Enrollment: | 100 |
| Study Start Date: | January 2002 |
PROTOCOL OUTLINE: Data on the clinical course and growth rate of NF2-related tumors in patients with neurofibromatosis 2. Patients are evaluated each year on a cranial and a spinal MRI, eye tests, hearing tests, quality of life, neurological tests, and physical functioning.
