Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The goal of this article was to review concisely what is currently known about the tumorigenesis of vestibular schwannomas. BACKGROUND: Recent advances in molecular biology have led to a better understanding of the cause of vestibular schwannomas. Mutations in the neurofibromatosis type 2 tumor suppressor gene (NF2) have been identified in these tumors. In addition, the interactions of merlin, the...
