Abstract

Objectives

To determine the natural history of hearing loss and tumor volume in patients with untreated neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2)-related schwannomatosis. Moreover, we statistically examined the factors affecting hearing prognosis.

Methods

This retrospective cohort study was conducted on 37 ears of 24 patients with NF2-related vestibular schwannomatosis followed up without treatment for more than 1 year. We obtained detailed chronological changes in the PTA and tumor volume in each case over time, and the rate of change per year was obtained. Multivariate analysis was also conducted to investigate factors associated with changes in hearing.

Results

The average follow-up period was approximately 9 years, and hearing deteriorated at an average rate of approximately 4 dB/year. The rate of maintaining effective hearing decreased from 30 ears (81%) at the first visit to 19 ears (51%) at the final follow-up. The average rate of change in tumor growth for volume was approximately 686.0 mm3/year. This study revealed that most patients with NF2 experienced deterioration in hearing acuity and tumor growth during the natural course. A correlation was observed between an increase in tumor volume and hearing loss (r = 0.686; p < 0.001).

Conclusions

Although the hearing preservation rate in NF2 cases is poor with the current treatment methods, many cases exist in which hearing acuity deteriorates, even during the natural course. Patients with an increased tumor volume during the follow-up period were more likely to experience hearing deterioration.
