摘要: Objectives: We aimed to determine the proportion of individuals in our schwannomatosis cohort whose disease is associated with an LZTR1 mutation. Methods: used exome sequencing, Sanger and copy number analysis screen 65 unrelated who were negative for a germline NF2 or SMARCB1 also screened samples from 39 patients unilateral vestibular schwannoma (UVS), plus at least one other schwannoma, but did not have identifiable mosaic Results: identified mutations 6 16 (37.5%) had affected relative, 11 49 (22%) sporadic patients, 2 UVS cohort. Three mutation–positive total developed UVS. Mosaicism was excluded 3 without mutation , by screening tumors each. Conclusions: Our data confirm relationship between schwannomatosis. They indicate that confer increased risk providing further overlap NF2, causative genes remain be identified.
