Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Acoustic neuroma, both familial and sporadic, is clinically and biologically a heterogeneous condition with a wide variation in age of presentation, length of history, and tumor growth rate. In an attempt to correlate this clinical diversity with the underlying molecular pathology, we have analyzed 43 paired blood-tumor DNA samples from patients with acoustic neuromas. DESIGN: Molecular genetic...
