Abstract

This paper represents the second part of the study shown in an accompanying paper, on the results of a semi-structured approach to the psychosocial impact of NF2.The most important areas highlighted by this study and not by an earlier open-ended approach are of communication, balance problems and depression. Generally speaking, patients do not consider tinnitus and facial palsy to be major difficulties.
