J Am Acad Dermatol. 1993 Feb;28(2 Pt 2):301-5. doi: 10.1016/0190-9622(93)70040-z.

Abstract

Rothmund-Thomson syndrome is a rare genodermatosis that features a progressive, early-onset poikiloderma, a high incidence of juvenile cataracts, stunted growth, and a wide range of skeletal abnormalities. We report the seventh case of osteosarcoma in a patient with Rothmund-Thomson syndrome and review the previous reports describing this association.
