Abstract

A review of the literature for the last 20 years shows no monumental advances in the diagnosis or treatment of the disease; however, there have been some very intriguing insights into the causes. The physical and emotional aspect of the skin condition is well known but the genetic, vascular, and neurogenic implications are of interest.

Proteus syndrome: diagnostic criteria, differential diagnosis, and patient evaluation.

Proteus syndrome is a complex disorder comprising malformations and overgrowth of multiple tissues. The disorder is highly variable and appears to affect patients in a mosaic manner. This intrinsic variability has led to diagnostic confusion associated with a dearth of longitudinal data on the natural history of Proteus syndrome. To clarify some of these issues, a workshop on Proteus syndrome was held in March 1998 at the National Institutes of Health, and participants developed recommendations for diagnostic criteria, differential diagnosis, and guidelines for the evaluation of patients. This is a review of those recommendations.
