Abstract excerpt
Somatic PIK3CA mutations may relate to pathogenesis of isolated macrodactyly. We set up to test the association between PIK3CA mutations with isolated macrodactyly in order to establish a more accurate and molecular mechanism-based diagnosis and classification. DNA extracted from affected tissues in 12 individuals with isolated macrodactyly was tested for PIK3CA mutation using targeted Sanger DNA sequencing. Ten...
