Skin Manifestations of Hereditary Cancer Syndromes: A Clinicopathologic Review

The focus of this review is the clinical and pathologic presentations of hereditary cancer syndromes with cutaneous manifestations, with the goal of providing a reference for the multidisciplinary care teams involved in the diagnosis and management of these conditions. Advancements in genomics have led to newly recognized syndromes and a deeper understanding of established syndromes. We focus on those with the most relevant cutaneous manifestations. Clinical and histopathologic images provide visual context for these findings, many of which are rare. We summarize the established literature and incorporate new research and noteworthy case reports.

Abstract

The focus of this review is the clinical and pathologic presentations of hereditary cancer syndromes with cutaneous manifestations, with the goal of providing a reference for the multidisciplinary care teams involved in the diagnosis and management of these conditions. Advancements in genomics have led to newly recognized syndromes and a deeper understanding of established syndromes. We focus on those with the most relevant cutaneous manifestations. Clinical and histopathologic images provide visual context for these findings, many of which are rare. We summarize the established literature and incorporate new research and noteworthy case reports.
