Bannayan–Riley–Ruvalcaba syndrome (BRRS) is a rare

autosomal dominant manner.[4]
The disease belongs to a family of hamartomatous polyposis syndromes, which also includes
juvenile polyposis and Cowden syndrome. Mutation of the PTEN gene underlies this syndrome, as well as Cowden syndrome, Proteus syndrome, and Proteus-like syndrome, these four syndromes are referred to as PTEN Hamartoma-Tumor Syndromes.[5]

Signs and symptoms

Bannayan–Riley–Ruvalcaba syndrome is associated with

Dysmorphy as well as delayed neuropsychomotor development can also be present.[1][5]

Some individuals have thyroid issues consistent with

multinodular goiter, thyroid adenoma, differentiated non-medullary thyroid cancer
, most lesions are slowly growing. Visceral as well as intracranial involvement may occur in some cases, and can cause bleeding and symptomatic mechanical compression[6][7]

Genetics

PTEN

The genetics of the Bannayan–Riley–Ruvalcaba syndrome is determined, in the majority of cases, via the

molecular location is 87,863,438 to 87,971,930 [2][7]

There are many syndromes that are linked to PTEN aside from Bannayan–Riley–Ruvalcaba Syndrome.[8]

The syndrome combines Bannayan–Zonana syndrome, Riley–Smith syndrome, and Ruvalcaba–Myhre–Smith syndrome.[9]

Bannayan–Zonana syndrome is named for George A. Bannayan and Jonathan Zonana[10]

Diagnosis

In terms of diagnosing Bannayan–Riley–Ruvalcaba syndrome there is no current method outside the physical characteristics that may be present as signs/symptoms.

cytogenetic test) to determine Bannayan–Riley–Ruvalcaba syndrome.[11]

Differential diagnosis

The differential diagnosis for BRRS consists of the following:[12]

Treatment

Kidney

In terms of management one should observe what signs or symptoms are present and therefore treat those as there is no other current guideline. The affected individual should be monitored for cancer of:[3]
