Expanding the clinical spectrum of mosaic BRAF skin phenotypes
2021
BRAF postzygotic activating mutations have been found in 50% of cases of syringocystadenoma papilliferum (SCAP)1 and in phacomatosis pigmentokeratotica (PPK)2,3 , also possibly caused by HRAS4 mutations. BRAF is a RAS-activating serine/threonine kinase of the MAP kinase pathway, resulting in cell growth and proliferation. BRAF mutations, particularly p.(Val600Glu), are frequently identified in melanoma and other human cancers5 . We report clinical presentations of three patients with postzygotic BRAF mutations in affected skin, identified by next generation sequencing (NGS).
