    This document discusses the pathophysiology of nerve sheath tumors. Key points include that proto-oncogenes and loss of apoptosis can lead to unnatural cell growth and proliferation. This results in demyelination of the myelin sheath and erosion, causing inflammation, irregular chemical impulses, and formation of lactic acid. Together these changes can cause numbness, tingling, loss of muscle function, and pain or headaches.
