Schwannomatosis is a syndrome characterized by presence of schwannomas in the absence of bilateral vestibular schwannomas and meningiomas. Schwannomas interest frequently peripheral nerves (90%) and spinal nerves (75%). Schwannomatosis are generally sporadic; in 15 - 25% are familiar. The genes involved are SMARCB1 (40-50% of familial) and LZTR1. The reported phenotype continues to expand and evolve. We report the case of a patient with Schwannomatosis and Lisch nodules, typical manifestation of NF1.

Abstract

Schwannomatosis is a syndrome characterized by presence of schwannomas in the absence of bilateral vestibular schwannomas and meningiomas. Schwannomas interest frequently peripheral nerves (90%) and spinal nerves (75%). Schwannomatosis are generally sporadic; in 15 - 25% are familiar. The genes involved are SMARCB1 (40-50% of familial) and LZTR1. The reported phenotype continues to expand and evolve. We report the case of a patient with Schwannomatosis and Lisch nodules, typical manifestation of NF1.
