Background: Pallister-Hall syndrome (OMIM #146510) is a rare autosomal dominant condition caused by a mutation in the GLI3 gene. The cardinal feature of Pallister-Hall syndrome is the presence of hypothalamic hamartomas, which may manifest with seizures, panhypopituitarism and visual impairment. In Pallister-Hall syndrome, dysplastic histogenetic processes responsible for hypothalamic hamartomas are thought to disrupt early craniofacial development.
