Hereditary diffuse gastric cancer is a familial form of poorly differentiated signet ring cell carcinoma (SRCC) caused by a mutation in the CDH1/E-cadherin gene-mediating cell adhesion. CDH1 mutations are inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion and exhibit a high level of penetrance. SRCC diagnosis is exceedingly rare in the pediatric population. We report a case of SRCC in 2 sisters (10 and 15 years) and their father (41 years).
遗传性弥漫性胃癌是一种由CDH1/E-钙黏蛋白基因突变介导细胞黏附所引起的家族性低分化印戒细胞癌(SRCC)。CDH1突变以常染色体显性方式遗传,且具有高度外显率。SRCC在儿科人群中的诊断极为罕见。我们报告了一例发生在两姐妹(10岁和15岁)及其父亲(41岁)身上的SRCC病例。
