Looking at Optic Nerve Sheath Meningiomas Through Genetics—From Clinic to Bench and Back Again
Optic nerve sheath meningiomas (ONSMs) occupy a unique intersection between neuro-oncology and genetics. Although most cases arise in middle-aged women as solitary, slow-growing tumors, pediatric onset, bilateral disease, or rapid progression frequently ...

Incidental Finding of Isolated Colonic Neurofibroma
Neurofibromatosis is a genetic disorder manifested by characteristic cutaneous lesions called neurofibromas. There are two distinct neurocutaneous syndromes named neurofibromatosis type 1 (also called von Recklinghausen disease or NF1) and ...

Precision therapies for genetic epilepsies in 2025: Promises and pitfalls
Abstract By targeting the underlying etiology, precision therapies offer an exciting paradigm shift to improve the stagnant outcomes of drug‐resistant epilepsies, including developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. Unlike conventional antiseizure medications (ASMs) which only treat the symptoms (seizures) but have no effect on the underlying ...

Pulmonary hypertension associated with neurofibromatosis type 2
Although precapillary pulmonary hypertension is a rare but severe complication of patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), its association with NF2 remains unknown.

Oculomotor nerve palsy in neurofibromatosis type 2
Neurofibromatosis (NF) type 2 is a rare neurological, autosomal dominant and genetic disorder. It is caused by a mutation in the tumor suppressor gene, called NF2 gene. The disorder results in several benign tumors of the nervous system.

Febrile status epilepticus and epileptogenesis: The FEBSTAT study
Abstract The multicenter FEBSTAT study (Consequences of Prolonged Febrile Seizures in Childhood: https://grantome.com/grant/NIH/R37‐NS043209‐12; PI S. Shinnar) examined the outcome of febrile status epilepticus (FSE) in over 200 prospectively enrolled infants, with many followed for 10 years after FSE.

The ocular presentation of neurofibromatosis 2 [PDF]
Neurofibromatosis 2 (NF2) is an inherited disorder characterised primarily by bilateral vestibular schwannomas and other central nervous system tumours. Individuals with NF2 also have early onset cortical and posterior subcapsular or capsular cataract and other ocular abnormalities, such as retinal hamartomas.

Abstract Background Differences in Frontal Alpha Asymmetry (FAA), derived from the electroencephalogram (EEG), have been associated with approach‐withdrawal behavior, although inconsistently. The current study examined how early patterns of FAA during the first 2 years of life relate to various socioemotional characteristics (at 2 years) and ultimately

Multifocality in neurofibromatosis type 2 [PDF]
In their article in the current edition of the journal Asthagiri and colleagues1 elegantly demonstrate that the lobulated appearance of vestibular schwannomas in NF2 is due to the multifocal origin of separate clonal tumors that have distinct second somatic ‘hits’ in the NF2 gene. In 1971 Knudson2 published the “two hit” hypothesis of tumorigenesis for
