A female patient was found to have meningioma when she was 3 years and 11 months old and subtotal excision was performed. The residual tumour recurred 3 months after the first excision, and again 11 months after the second one. She was also found to have subcutaneous neurofibroma. However, her clinical features did not fulfil the diagnostic criteria for neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2), and her family history was...
