## Abstract ## Background. Early detection of paragangliomas (PGs) has been linked to low morbidity after surgical resection. Recent identification of causative genes (__SDHB, SDHC,__ and __SDHD__) has made it possible to detect individuals at high risk for tumors. ## Methods. We identified a th
Eight novel mutations were identified in the gene encoding L1CAM, a neural cell adhesion protein, in patients/families with Xlinked hydrocephalus (XHC) providing additional evidence for extreme allelic heterogeneity of the trait. The two nonsense mutations (Gln440Ter and Gln1042Ter) result most like
