neoplasm
• 81.5% of mice exhibit neurofibroma tumors; tumors arise at the dorsal root ganglia, with invasion of the neural foramen and lead to compression of the spinal cord
• most tumors are detected in cervical and thoracic spine, with a lower percentage in the lumbar spine
• neurofibromas are characterized by disorganized Remak bundles and enriched deposition of collagen
