DOI: 10.1007/s11060-018-2842-4
Abstract: BackgroundMalignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs) are rare tumors, generally high-grade, and comprise ~ 5–10% of soft tissue sarcomas. Over two-thirds of MPNSTs metastasize, and upwards of 40% clinically recur. Etiologic risk factors for MPNSTs are historically… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/neuonc/noac100
Abstract: Abstract Background Patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) develop benign (BPNST), premalignant atypical (ANF), and malignant (MPNST) peripheral nerve sheath tumors. Radiological differentiation of these entities is challenging. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the value… read more here.
