چکیده
IPMN: intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm POIKTMP: hereditary fibrosing poikiloderma with tendon contractures, myopathy, and pulmonary fibrosis RTS: Rothmund-Thomson syndrome H ereditary fibrosing poikiloderma with tendon contractures, myopathy, and pulmonary fibrosis (POIKTMP [MIM#615704]) is an extremely rare syndromic form of autosomal dominant poikiloderma. This genetic disorder was first identified in a South African family in 2006. To date, 3 families and 9 independent sporadic cases have been reported. Here we report an additional family of POIKTMP and expand the clinical spectrum. We describe, for the first time to our knowledge, a pancreatic cancer in the clinical course in 1 patient. We also address the differential diagnosis of inherited poikiloderma and related disorders.

Expanding the clinical spectrum of hereditary fibrosing poikiloderma with tendon contractures, myopathy and pulmonary fibrosis due to FAM111B mutations
BACKGROUND Hereditary Fibrosing Poikiloderma (HFP) with tendon contractures, myopathy and pulmonary fibrosis (POIKTMP [MIM 615704]) is a very recently described entity of syndromic inherited poikiloderma. Previously by using whole exome sequencing in five families, we identified the causative gene, FAM111B (NM_198947.3), the function of which is still unknown. Our objective in this study was to...

Objective(s): Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. Every year, one million new cases are reported worldwide, representing 18% of the total number of cancer in women. Hereditary BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations account for about 60% of inherited breast cancer and are the only known causes of hereditary breast cancer syndrome. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of BRCA2 (e...
متن کاملA review of retinoblastoma disease
Retinoblastoma is a rare type of eye cancer that usually occurs in early childhood, usually before the age of five. This type of cancer occurs in the retina, the light-sensitive tissue behind the eye that recognizes light and color. It is the most common type of eye cancer in children. One-third of all retinoblastomas are inherited, meaning that mutations in the RB1 gene are present in all cell...
