A Case of Cerebral Gigantism and Hepatocarcinoma

Gerald I. Sugarman, MD; Eva T. Heuser, MD; William B. Reed, MD

Am J Dis Child. 1977;131(6):631-633.


Abstract

• A 14-year-old boy, who had the physical and neurological characteristics of cerebral gigantism (Sotos syndrome), developed hepatocarcinoma. This tumor is rare in children and has never, to our knowledge, been recorded in a patient with cerebral gigantism. An autopsy was performed, the first we are aware of in a patient with cerebral gigantism without increased size in ventricles.

(Am J Dis Child 131:631-633, 1977)
