Title: Medulloblastoma in association with the Coffin-Siris syndrome. Author: Rogers L, Pattisapu J, Smith RR, Parker P. Journal: Childs Nerv Syst; 1988 Feb; 4(1):41-4. PubMed ID: 2456854. Abstract: An 8-year old patient with Coffin-Siris syndrome is presented, who was found to have a medulloblastoma during the evaluation of apnea and ventilator dependency. Although several cases of Dandy Walker cysts and one case of brain-stem heterotopia have been described in this rare syndrome, this is the first report of medulloblastoma in a patient with Coffin-Siris syndrome. Possible pathogenetic mechanisms are briefly discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
