Abstract

Encephalocraniocutaneous lipomatosis (ECCL) is a rare genetic condition with well-described skin, ocular, and central nervous system findings. Several case reports have been documented demonstrating the presence of low-grade gliomas in patients with ECCL and the association with certain FGFR1 mutations. We report on a case of diffuse low-grade glioma, mitogen activated protein kinase pathway altered in a patient with ECCL, who was found to have a distinct FGFR1 mutation.
