PIK3CA c.3140A>G mutation in a patient with suspected Proteus Syndrome: a case report

Key Clinical Message We present a patient with suspected Proteus Syndrome, an overgrowth disorder associated with AKT1c.49G>A mutation. NGS analysis detected PIK3CAc.3140A>G mutation in the patient's affected tissue allowing for PROS (PIK3CA‐related overgrowth spectrum) diagnosis. The ove...

Zusammenfassung:Key Clinical Message We present a patient with suspected Proteus Syndrome, an overgrowth disorder associated with AKT1c.49G>A mutation. NGS analysis detected PIK3CAc.3140A>G mutation in the patient's affected tissue allowing for PROS (PIK3CA‐related overgrowth spectrum) diagnosis. The overlapping clinical features in overgrowth disorders highlight the importance of molecular testing for a correct diagnosis.
