RESUMEN
Rothmund-Thomson syndrome, a heterogeneous genodermatosis with autosomal recessive hereditary pattern, is an uncommon cancer susceptibility genetic syndrome. To date, only 400 cases have been reported in the literature, and the severity of the features varies among individuals with the condition. Here, we describe a 55-year-old male who had been diagnosed with Bloom Syndrome during childhood due to the suggestive physical features such as short stature, chronic facial erythema, poikiloderma in face and extremities, microtia and microcephaly. However, the genetic test demonstrated that the patient carried two pathogenic variants resulting in compound heterozygous in the RECQL4 gene (c.2269C>T and c.2547_2548delGT). He subsequently developed a calcaneal osteosarcoma, which was successfully treated, and has currently been oncologic disease-free for 3 years.
