Of note, only a quarter of all NF2 variants found (genomic position and bp change: 29604069, c.71_72insA; 29639100, c.A251C; 29642218, c.T380G; 29661212, c.683delG) had been previously identified in meningiomas (5, 12, 27), while the other 12 are reported here for the first time. This evidence concerns the gene NF2 and meningioma.
