RESUMEN
Cardio-facio-cutaneous syndrome (CFCS) is a rare genetic syndrome associated with abnormal activation of RAS-mitogen-activated protein kinase(RAS-MAPK)signal transduction pathway.Causative genes are BRAF, MAP2K1, MAP2K2 and KRAS.CFCS is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by dysmorphic craniofacial features, congenital heart disease, dermatologic abnormalities, gastrointestinal dysfunction, failure to thrive, neurocognitive delay and epilepsy, whose phenotype overlaps with many other RASopathies.Final diagnosis of CFCS can be reached by classical presentation and genetic testing.Early diagnosis helps to evaluate risk of severe complications of specific genotype and improve prognosis of CFCS patients.At present, there is no effective treatment of CFCS although inhibitors of MEK may improve partial phenotype of CFCS animal models.Once diagnosed with CFCS, the patients need multidisciplinary assessment and treatment.
