case_images: The macules were discretely spread across the child's face, chest, back, upper and lower extremities, and palms and soles (Figures 2 and 3).
case_images: Cafe-au-lait macules along with lentigines. Note. Scoliosis and protruding shoulder blade from the back (scapula alata) can be seen easily from this aspect.

case_images: Distinct facial features included hypertelorism, a flat nasal bridge, and prognathism (protruding lower jaw) (Figures 5 and 6).
case_images: The lateral aspect shows a protruding lower jaw (prognathism), a flat nasal bridge, and low-set ear. A part of the protruding chest (pectus carinatum) is also seen.

case_images: Distinct facial features included hypertelorism, a flat nasal bridge, and prognathism (protruding lower jaw) (Figures 5 and 6). Dental arch discrepancies, diastema, and hypodontia were also noted (Figure 6). Pectus carinatum (protruding chest) (Figures 2 and 6), scoliosis, and scapula alata (Figure 4) were observed.
case_images: Genetic analysis of the PTPN11 gene. The analysis was performed using the ABI 3500 genetic analyzer system. The results show a heterozygous mutation on exon 7 of the aforementioned gene.
