ABSTRACT

Hereditary cancer predisposition accounts for more than 10% of all cancers in pediatric age group and this is increasingly recognized as an important entity because of modern sequencing techniques. We report a rare association of two concurrent cancer predisposition syndromes, BRCA2 and PMS2, in a young child who presented with concurrent malignancies including Wilms tumor, myelodysplastic syndrome and an indeterminate brain lesion who succumbed to his disease. Multiple synchronous malignancies present difficult clinical and psycho-social challenges which need to be carefully addressed in the setting of a multi-disciplinary team approach.
