We identified a missense mutation (T185-->C, Phe62-->Ser) in the neurofibromatosis 2 (NF2) gene in a family with mild and severe NF2 phenotypes. This mutation was previously reported in an unrelated family in which all affected individuals had mild phenotypes. These data demonstrate a lack of correlation between NF2 genotype and NF2 phenotype for this mutation.
