Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumours in neurofibromatosis 1

TL;DR: The lifetime risk of MPNST in NF1 is much higher than previously estimated and warrants careful surveillance and a low threshold for investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical and molecular genetic features of pulmonary hypertension in patients with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia

TL;DR: Pulmonary hypertension in association with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia can involve mutations in ALK1, a member of the transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) superfamily of receptors, which is associated with diverse effects, including the vascular dilatation characteristic of hereditary hemorrhage.
Journal ArticleDOI
