This is a report of a 36 week male infant who suffered abdominal distension and difficulty opening bowels within first few days of life and showed a pattern of hypoventilation and apnea associated with sleep. His diagnostic studies confirmed the diagnosis of congenital central hypoventilation syndrome CCHS (PHOX2B mutation) and Hirschsprung's disease and later found a further mutation of BRAF oncogene. This describes a novel association between these mutations and the shared qualities of tumorigenesis between BRAF and PHOX2B.
这是一份关于一名36周大男婴的报告,该男婴在出生后的头几天出现腹胀和排便困难,并表现出与睡眠相关的通气不足和呼吸暂停模式。他的诊断研究证实了先天性中枢性通气不足综合征(CCHS,PHOX2B基因突变)和先天性巨结肠病的诊断,后来又发现了BRAF癌基因的进一步突变。本文描述了这些突变之间的一种新关联,以及BRAF和PHOX2B在肿瘤发生方面的共同特性。
