Ongoing issues with the management of children with Constitutional Mismatch Repair Deficiency syndrome.

Constitutional Mismatch Repair Deficiency (CMMRD) is a rare cancer predisposition syndrome, presenting in childhood, in which affected patients develop various malignancies such as hematological, gastrointestinal and central nervous system tumors. Although guidelines are being increasingly developed for surveillance and early detection of cancers in affected families, there are no clear recommendations regarding choice of therapy and very scarce information about tolerance to chemotherapy and radiation in these patients. We report the pedigree of a consanguineous family with four affected children.
