Abstract

A 5-year-old girl with a family history of LEOPARD syndrome had multiple lentigines on the face and trunk, hypertelorism, and growth retardation. In addition, she had congenital corneal tumors on both eyes. Histologically the tumors were choristoma. The neuroectodermal origin hypothesis of LEOPARD syndrome could explain the presence of a congenital corneal tumor in this patient. We suggest that corneal tumor may represent an unrecognized associated finding in this syndrome.
