Plastic surgery is usually needed. The surgeon cuts the neurofibromas out of the body before resealing the skin. Depending on the size and location of the neurofibromas, they may be able to be treated with laser surgery or an electric current (electrodessication) instead.

There's currently no cure for nf2. Treatment involves regular monitoring and treating any problems as they occur. Surgery can be used to remove most tumours, although it carries a risk of causing problems, such as complete deafness or facial weakness.

Treatment for nf depends on
the patient's age, health, and medical history
the symptoms
which nerves are affected
