• Multiple schwannomas have frequently been seen in patients with neurofibromatosis. Recently, the association of multiple cutaneous schwannomas, central nervous system tumors, and various neurologic deficits has been described in Japanese patients as a condition called schwannomatosis.

Schwannomatosis on a Single Foot
Foot & Ankle Specialist, 2014Schwannomatosis has been recently recognized as the third major type of neurofibromatosis. It causes multiple schwannomas without the vestibular tumors that are diagnostic of neurofibromatosis type 2. Schwannoma is rarely found in the foot, and it is still rarer to find multiple schawannomas in a single peripheral nerve on the foot.

Surgery in NF2-Schwannomatosis
Familial CancerNF2-Schwannomatosis (NF2-SWN) is a disease characterized by multiple tumors of the central and peripheral nervous system. Surgery remains an important treatment option, sometimes performed on an urgent basis, but usually planned within the context of complex multi-tumour burden and morbidity.

Orbital Schwannomatosis in the Absence of Neurofibromatosis
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2014The aim of this study was to describe 3 cases of primary orbital schwannomatosis without associated systemic neurofibromatosis.This is a retrospective interventional study of 3 patients who presented with multiple, distinct masses in the orbit (n = 3) as well as in the hemiface (n = 1).

Neurology, 2003
Schwannomatosis is a recently recognized disorder, defined as multiple pathologically proven schwannomas without vestibular tumors diagnostic of neurofibromatosis 2 (NF2). Some investigators have questioned whether schwannomatosis is merely an attenuated form of NF2.The authors identified eight families in which a proband met their diagnostic criteria ...

[Neurofibromatosis versus schwannomatosis].
Fortschritte der Neurologie-Psychiatrie, 1998Neurofibromatosis Type 1 and 2 (NF1 und NF2) are different forms of neurofibromatosis, well defined both clinically and genetically. In absence of typical clinical features of NF1 (café-au-lait-spots, cutaneous neurofibromas, Lisch-nodules) or NF2 (vestibular schwanoma) clinical classification is often not possible. Neurofibromas are more common in NF1

Clinical epidemiology of NF2-related schwannomatosis
The epidemiology of NF2-related schwannomatosis (NF2) has only been possible to delineate after the separation of NF2 from the more common nerve sheath-predisposing tumor condition NF1 in 1987. Two groups have published data on the birth incidence and prevalence of NF2 in the United Kingdom and Finland.D Gareth, Evans, Scott R, Plotkin

Molecular Studies on Schwannomatosis
2008Schwannomatosis is a genetic disease characterized by multiple non-vestibular schwannomas with an unknown genetic cause. One recent study suggested that schwannomatosis may be as common as neurofibromatosis type 2. Schwannomatosis and NF2 share common clinical and molecular features, but at the same time differ fundamentally from one another.
