Muir-Torre syndrome - Treatment with isotretinoin and interferon alpha-2a can prevent tumour development [PDF]
Muir-Torre syndrome is a genodermatosis in which multiple internal malignancies are associated with cutaneous sebaceous tumours and kerato-acanthomas. A 57-year-old man presented with multiple sebaceous tumours, kerato-acanthomas, verrucous carcinoma of ...

A 65-year-old man with a history of multiple neoplastic and pre-neoplastic gastrointestinal lesions as well as urogenital carcinoma presented for evaluation of two asymptomatic skin-colored papules in the head and neck region. Biopsy revealed sebaceous neoplasms and immunohistochemical staining was negative for the presence of hMSH-2 protein in both ...

Muir-Torre syndrome (MTS) is a rare autosomal-dominant genodermatosis characterized by sebaceous neoplasms and one or more visceral malignancies. Sebaceous tumors include sebaceous adenoma and carcinoma, which may be solitary or multiple. Visceral malignancies most often arise in the colorectum and endometrium.

Muir-Torre Syndrome with Novel Mutation in the MSH2 Gene [PDF]
Muir-Torre syndrome (MST) is a rare autosomal dominant subtype of hereditary non-polyposis colorectal carcinoma. The diagnosis is established based on the coexistence of sebaceous gland tumors and visceral organ malignancies. Mutations in the mismatch

FDG-PET-positive lower-extremity sebaceous-gland carcinoma in a patient with Muir-Torre syndrome
Sebaceous-gland carcinoma can occur alone or as one of the defining features of the Muir-Torre syndrome. Cases occurring below the head and neck are extremely rare.

Role of microsatellite instability, immunohistochemistry and Mismatch Repair germline aberrations in immunosuppressed transplant patients: a phenocopy dilemma in Muir-Torre Syndrome. [PDF]
Sebaceous tumours and keratoacanthomas are uncommon neoplasms that constitute important clinical criteria for Muir-Torre Syndrome (MTS) diagnosis. In MTS patients, the increased risk of developing synchronous or metachronous visceral malignancies is ...

Abstract Background Muir–Torre syndrome (MTS) is a rare genetic disorder that is caused by mismatch repair (MMR) protein mutations. MTS increases the risk of developing skin and gastrointestinal tumors such as sebaceous adenomas (SAs), sebaceous carcinomas, colorectal cancer, endometrial cancer, and ovarian cancer. The risk of developing these types of

Microsatellite instability, immunohistochemistry and germline mismatch repair gene mutations for the diagnosis of Muir-Torre syndrome in immunosuppressed patients [PDF]
Although rare sebaceous tumors and keratoacanthomas are clinical criteria for Muir-Torre syndrome (MTS), they can also be found in the context of immunosuppression.

Identification of human papillomavirus DNA in cutaneous lesions of Cowden syndrome [PDF]
Background: Cowden syndrome (CS) or multiple hamartoma syndrome is a cancer-associated genodermatosis inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. One of the diagnostic criteria is facial papules which are felt to be trichilemmomas, benign hair follicle ...

A rare extraocular sebaceous carcinoma mimicking primary ectopic breast cancer
Sebaceous carcinoma (SC) is an aggressive malignancy derived from the sebaceous glands. SC is divided into two categories, ocular and extraocular. Extraocular SC is quite rare, and is also associated with the Muir-Torre syndrome, which is regarded as a ...
