摘要
En 中文
Ras/mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway dysregulation results in a group of disorders, collectively termed as RASopathies. Neurofibromatosis type 1, Noonan syndrome, Noonan syndrome with multiple lentigines, Noonan syndrome/loose anagen hair, Legius syndrome, Costello syndrome, cardio-facio-cutaneous syndrome and capillary malformation-arteriovenous malformation are the well -recognized RASopathies. These are characterized by multi-organ tumours and hamartomas. Some other features in common are facial dysmorphism, skeletal abnormalities, congenital heart disease, neurocognitive abnormalities and risk of various solid-organ and haematological malignancies. Some of the RASopathies are heterogeneous, caused by several gene mutations resulting in variations in phenotypes and severity ranging from mild to fatal. Significant phenotypic overlaps among different disorders, often makes it difficult to pinpoint a clinical diagnosis. Specific cutaneous manifestations are present in some of the RASopathies and are often the earliest clinical signs/symptoms. Hence, dermatologists contribute significantly as primary care physicians by identifying disorder-specific cutaneous lesions. However, diagnostic work-up and management of these disorders are often multidisciplinary. Confirmation of diagnosis is possible only by genetic mapping in each case. Genetic counseling of the patients and the affected families is an important component of the management. The aim of this review is description of cutaneous manifestations of RASopathies in the background of multi-system involvement to enable dermatologists a comprehensive and logical approach to work up and diagnose such patients in the absence of facility for specific molecular testing.
