Neurofibromatosis type 2
Age of symptom onset: between 18–24 years
Bilateral vestibular schwannomas (acoustic neuromas)
Multiple cerebral and spinal tumors (especially meningiomas and ependymomas)

Schwannoma would be peripheral, right? Schwann cells are peripheral myelin

I believe they are and even the cranial nerves are considered PNS not CNS, which is why I named my table “primary brain tumors” and not primary CNS tumors.

“Peripheral nervous system: consists of the nerves and ganglia outside the brain and spinal cord, including the cranial nerves, spinal nerves, and their roots, peripheral nerves, and neuromuscular junctions”
