A woman with a pleural mesothelioma and an inherited ATM mutation—a case report
This case highlights the importance of genetic testing in atypical PM cases, guiding treatment decisions tailored to individual genetic profiles. Awareness of <i>ATM</i> mutations can optimize therapeutic strategies, particularly regarding RT choices, in managing this challenging malignancy. Integrating genetic insights into clinical practice holds promise for enhancing treatment outcomes and refining management strategies in PM and related conditions.
