Acromegaly and Morris Syndrome: Description of a Clinical Case
Our clinical case describes for the first time the association between Morris syndrome and acromegaly. Due to the singularity of this case, we decided to conduct more in-depth genetic analyses through a clinical exome study and CGH Array evaluation, which, however, did not lead to the discovery of a genetic association between the two conditions. Although this condition is rare, further genetic studies are needed to demonstrate a genetic association between these two conditions.
