Lu Wenli , Xie Yiwen , Wang Junqi , Wang Wei

Background: MAS is a rare disorder, this syndrome is classically characterized by a triad of physical signs: cafe-au-lait skin pigmentation(SP), fibrous bone dysplasia(FD), peripheral precocious puberty(PPP). In children, the most frequent initial presentation of MAS is PPP. MAS is caused by postzygotic activating mutations at the R201 codon of the GNAS gene, leading to a state of somatic mosaicium. In MAS patients, the frequency of mutations is expected to be...
