Re: [UndiagnosedOvergrowthSyndromes] Overgrowth unknown reason

Welcome to the group. It is so frustrating not knowing which type of
Overgrowth our children (grandchildren) have. It appears that there are
more Overgrowth Syndromes which are unknown, than those which have a name.
I am sorry I have not heard of the stomach tumours you mention. Are they
life-threatening? Bannayan-Riley-Rivucalva (last word might be spelled
wrong) has tumours as one of its features if I remember correctly, but I
would have thought the doctors would have picked this up as it is not
unheard of.
