LEOPARD syndrome 2

LEOPARD syndrome 2 is a rare condition that falls under the group of Noonan syndromes with multiple lentigines. A key aspect of this condition is that it is caused by a mutation in the RAF1 gene. People with this syndrome may show features that overlap with other types of Noonan syndrome, and the presence of multiple small skin spots (lentigines) is notable. This summary is based on the specific definition available for LEOPARD syndrome 2, which emphasizes the genetic cause related to the RAF1 gene. Detailed information about the full range of symptoms and clinical characteristics is limited, but the genetic basis helps in understanding the nature of the syndrome.

Information about symptoms is currently limited for this condition.

LEOPARD syndrome 2 is caused by a mutation in the RAF1 gene. This mutation is responsible for the development of features seen in the syndrome and classifies it as a genetic condition. The presence of the RAF1 mutation links this condition to a subgroup of Noonan syndrome with multiple lentigines.
