A method of diagnosing Cowden syndrome (CS) and Cowden-like Syndrome (CLS) is described. The method includes diagnosing CS and CLS in a subject by identifying a decrease in expression of the KILLIN gene, or by identifying hypermethylation of the KILLIN promoter region. Kits for diagnosing CS and CLS by identifying subjects having KILLIN promoter region hypermethylation and primers specific for a methylated KILLIN promoter region are also described.
