Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

We describe the occurrence of a medulloblastoma and an astrocytoma in successive generations of a family with the Gorlin syndrome. The appearance of thousands of invasive basal cell carcinomata after craniospinal irradiation led to the death of one patient from intracranial involvement. © 1991 Informa UK Ltd All rights reserved: reproduction in whole or part not permitted.
