This review summarises the current literature related to hearing preservation/rehabilitation in patients with NF2. Whilst it provides indicative data, the quality of the data was low and should be interpreted with care. It is also important to consider that the management of vestibular schwannomas in NF2 is complex and decision-making is determined by many factors, not just the need to preserve hearing.
