Association of intraneural perineurioma with neurofibromatosis type 2.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) is a genetic disorder characterized by mutations of the NF2 tumor suppressor gene that predisposes patients to develop multiple tumors in the peripheral and central nervous system. The most common neoplasms associated with the disease are schwannomas and meningiomas. Both have been shown to contain abnormalities in chromosome 22 and the NF2 gene, suggesting a genetic component to their pathogenesis. Perineuriomas are rare benign tumors arising from the perineural cells. They are commonly classified as intraneural and soft tissue perineuriomas. Several studies have reported mutations in genes on chromosome 22 in both types of perineuriomas, and there are reports of soft tissue perineuriomas associated with NF2 gene mutations. Despite this, perineuriomas are not considered as part of the NF2 constellation of tumors. METHOD:The electronic medical records were searched for patients with a radiologic or pathologic diagnosis of intraneural perineurioma. Patients with clinical signs and genetic testing consistent with a diagnosis of NF2 were further evaluated. RESULTS:Of 112 patients meeting inclusion criteria, there were two cases of intraneural perineurioma in patients with NF2 treated at our institution (1.8%). We include a third patient treated at another facility for whom we performed a virtual consultation. CONCLUSIONS:The rarity of both NF2 and perineuriomas could explain the rarity of perineuriomas in the setting of NF2. Furthermore, there is divergent intraneural and soft tissue perineurioma somatic mutation pathogenesis, and there may be cytogenetic overlap between perineuriomas and multiple tumor syndromes. Our observed occurrence of intraneural perineurioma in the setting of NF2 in several patients provides further evidence of a potential link between the NF2 gene and the development of intraneural perineurioma.
