Pineocytoma in a child with Pallister-Killian syndrome: a case report and review of the literature.

Abstract

Pallister-Killian syndrome (PKS; OMIM #601803) is a rare genetic disorder typically characterized by developmental delay, seizures, sparse temporal hair, and facial dysmorphisms. PKS is most frequently caused by mosaic supernumerary isochromosome 12p. Here, we report a 27-month-old girl with a prenatal diagnosis of PKS and a histopathological diagnosis of pineocytoma.
