The goal of this observational study is to individuate tumors' and patients' features influencing the outcome after surgical tumor removal.
Patients operated because of removal of Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) tumor will be recruited accordingly to the inclusion criteria: the aims of the study will be illustrated and the informed consent signed.
All the clinical and neuroradiological perioperative documents of the enrolled patients will be analyzed. As follow-up, thorough neurological exam wil be performed and specific surveys about after surgery social and working life will be administered; neuroradiological imaging will be performed.
Then, the results will be investigated to individuate which factors were related to the outcome.
