Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is known as Leopard syndrome, which is a mnemonic
rule for multiple lentigines (L), electrocardiographic conduction abnormalities
(E), ocular hypertelorism (O), pulmonary stenosis (P), abnormalities of
genitalia (A), retardation of growth (R), and deafness (D). We report the case
of a 12-year-old patient with some of the abovementioned characteristics:
hypertelorism, macroglossia, lentigines, hypospadias, cryptorchidism, subaortic
stenosis, growth retardation, and hearing impairment. Due to this set of
symptoms, we diagnosed Leopard syndrome.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
