Abstract
Spontaneous tumors of the nervous system and associated organs and/or tissues in 346 male and 346 female F344/DuCrj rats and 200 male and 177 female Slc:Wistar rats were examined. The main neurogenic tumors observed were gliomas and neurinomas, which were detected in both strains of rats. Out of 7 gliomas, 6 were found in the brain and 1 in the spinal cord, and out of 4 neurinomas, 2 were in the trigeminal nerves and the other 2 were in the spinal nerves. In addition, other types of tumors (2 granular cell tumors in the brain, 1 pinealoma, 3 ganglioneuromas in the adrenal gland, 1 undifferentiated carcinoma in the nasal cavity and 1 chordoma in the posterior neck region) were observed.
