FA (Fanconi's Anemia) is an autosomal recessive disorder that is characterized by pancytopenia with bone marrow hypoplasia, diverse congenital abnormalities and an increased predisposition towards malignancy. The mainstay of the treatment for these cancers has been surgery, because of the hypersensitive reactions of FA patients to DNA cross- linking agents or radiation. Therefore, there has been no effective therapy for advanced squamous cell carcinoma. We report here on a patient suffering from advanced multiple squamous cell carcinoma and hepatocellular carcinoma along with an FA, and this patient was treated with gefitinib.
范可尼贫血(FA)是一种常染色体隐性遗传疾病,其特征是全血细胞减少伴骨髓发育不良、多种先天性异常和恶性肿瘤易感性增加。由于 FA 患者对 DNA 交联剂或辐射的超敏反应,这些癌症的主要治疗方法一直是手术。因此,对于晚期鳞状细胞癌没有有效的治疗方法。我们在此报告一例患有晚期多发性鳞状细胞癌和肝细胞癌以及 FA 的患者,并使用吉非替尼对其进行治疗。
