The Muir-Torre syndrome: a rare variant of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer associated with hMSH2 mutation.

The American journal of gastroenterology - 1 Sept 1998

Abstract excerpt

The Muir-Torre syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant disorder characterized by the association of visceral malignancies with typical skin lesions. This syndrome is now considered a subtype of the more common hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer syndrome (HNPCC). This last condition has been ascribed to mutations in four mismatch repair genes, and similar mutations, mostly located at hMSH2 gene, are now being...
