We present a patient with suspected Proteus Syndrome, an overgrowth disorder associated with AKT1c.49G>A mutation. NGS analysis detected PIK3CAc.3140A>G mutation in the patient's affected tissue allowing for PROS (PIK3CA-related overgrowth spectrum) diagnosis. The overlapping clinical features in overgrowth disorders highlight the importance of molecular testing for a correct diagnosis.

Sinonasal Teratocarcinosarcoma (SNTCS) is a rare and histologically heterogeneous tumor of uncertain origin and unknown molecular pathogenesis. Its location and aggressiveness, with frequent recurrences, high rate for metastasis and short mean survival, make SNTCS a tumor highly difficult to treat. Thus, the identification of underlying genetic changes could potentially provide successful adjuvant or alternative precision medicine treatment options for patients with this tumor.
