Genetic diseases associated with an increased risk of skin cancer development in childhood.

Current opinion in pediatrics - 1 Aug 2017

Fogel Alexander L, Sarin Kavita Y, Teng Joyce M C

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Childhood skin cancers are relatively rare and may indicate an underlying genetic disorder. The increasing elucidation of genetic pathways is changing the diagnosis and management of genetic skin cancer susceptibility syndromes. In this review, we provide an overview of genetic conditions that predispose to skin cancer development in childhood and signs that providers should assess when...
