abstract
Lynch
syndrome (LS) is an autosomal-dominant inherited cancer predisposition
syndrome caused by germline mutations in DNA mismatch repair genes
(MLH1, MSH2, MSH6 or PMS2). Muir-Torre syndrome (MTS) is a phenotypic
variant of LS that includes a predisposition to sebaceous glands tumors
and keratoacanthomas. We report two patients with MTS, with more than
one LS-related cancer, skin lesions, family history of cancer
and microsatellite instability and immunohistochemistry analysis.
