An Interesting Case of MISME Syndrome

Abstract

Multiple inherited schwannomas, meningiomas, and ependymomas (MISME) syndrome or neurofibromatosis type 2 is an autosomal dominant condition characterized by multiple schwannomas, meningiomas, and ependymomas. Bilateral vestibular schwannomas are the hallmark of this condition, which is seen in the majority of patients. Presence of multiple cranial and spinal tumors of different types should alert the radiologist to this possibility so that a timely diagnosis can be made.
