PIK3CA-related overgrowth spectrum (PROS) are overgrowth diseases involving mesenchymal tissues caused by postzygotic variants in the PIK3CA gene. Fibro-Adipose hyperplasia or Overgrowth (FAO) belongs to PROS. We reported the beneficial effect of oral low-dose sirolimus therapy in a child affected by progressive FAO in term of stabilization of the disease, good tolerability, and easy management.
