- Abstract
An observation of multiple primary tumors of various histogenesis and a rare combination (uterine body carcinoma, mammary fibroadenoma, bronchial carcinoid, jejunum carcinoma) developing in a female patient at various periods of her life is described. The autosome-dominant type of the transfer proves the possibility of a genetic predisposition of the tumor development (the patient's mother and brother also had tumors). This observation demonstrates the variety of tumor combinations and tumor topography in cases of genetically predetermined blastomogenic process. This may represent a basis for distinguishing separate variants of Fraumeni syndrome.
