Legius syndrome is autosomal dominant and caused by mutations in the SPRED1 gene. Clinical manifestations include multiple cafe-au-lait spots, axillary/ inguinal freckling and a degree of macrocephaly, without the non-pigmentary signs of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). Learning disabilities, developmental delay and ADHD are also known.
