RESUMO
According to clinical guidelines, the occurrence of very early-onset breast cancer (VEO-BC) (diagnosed ≤ age 30 years) or VEO ovarian cancer (VEO-OC) (diagnosed ≤ age 40 years) in families with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation (BRCAm) prompts advancing the age of risk-reducing strategies in relatives. This study aimed to assess the relation between the occurrence of VEO-BC or VEO-OC in families with BRCAm and age at BC or OC diagnosis in relatives. We conducted a retrospective multicenter study of 448 consecutive families with BRCAm from 2003 to 2018. Mean age and 5-year-span distribution of age at BC or OC in relatives were compared in families with or without VEO-BC or VEO-OC. Conditional probability calculation and Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel chi-square tests were used to investigate early-onset cancer occurrence in relatives of VEO-BC and VEO-OC cases. Overall, 15% (19/245) of families with BRCA1m and 9% (19/203) with BRCA2m featured at least one case of VEO-BC; 8% (37/245) and 2% (2/203) featured at least one case of VEO-OC, respectively. The cumulative prevalence of VEO-BC was 5.1% (95% CI 3.6-6.6) and 2.5% (95% CI 1.4-3.6) for families with BRCA1m and BRCA2m, respectively. The distribution of age and mean age at BC diagnosis in relatives did not differ by occurrence of VEO-BC for families with BRCA1m or BRCA2m. Conditional probability calculations did not show an increase of early-onset BC in VEO-BC families with BRCA1m or BRCA2m. Conversely, the probability of VEO-BC was not increased in families with early-onset BC. VEO-BC or VEO-OC occurrence may not be related to young age at BC or OC onset in relatives in families with BRCAm. This finding-together with a relatively high VEO-BC risk for women with BRCAm-advocates for MRI breast screening from age 25 regardless of family history.

Dysplasia epiphysealis hemimelica (DEH) or Trevor's disease is a rare disorder affecting the epiphyses and short bones of the limbs, and characterized by a benign overgrowth of the medial-half of the epiphysis resembling osteochondroma. Upper limb involvement is very rare and most commonly affects the carpal bones. Only five established cases of DEH around the elbow were found in the orthopedic literature. We herein report an additional case of Trevor's disease of the elbow in a child with a symptomatic ulnar nerve compression and its management. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of DEH of the elbow presenting with nerve compromise.
