Introduction: McCune-Albright Syndrome (MAS) is a rare congenital disorder caused by post-zygotic activating mutations in GNAS gene. Due to the mosaic pattern of this disease, mutation abundance is frequently low in several tissues, including blood cells. The emergence of next-generation sequencing (NGS) methodologies has allowed the analysis of millions of DNA fragments simultaneously and independently, enabling detection of low mutation abundance. Aim: To es...

Background: GNAS activating mutations are the genetic basis of McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS). Peripheral precocious puberty (PPP) due to functional ovarian cysts, with or without MAS features, denotes a potential GNAS -related disorder.Aim: To explore GNAS somatic mutations (p.R201C/H) in peripheral leukocyte DNA using ddPCR in girls with ovarian-origin PPP with or without MAS.<p class="ab...
