Muir-Torre syndrome manifesting as sebaceous adenoma/adenocarcinoma and colonic adenocarcinoma - A case report

Muir-Torre Syndrome (MTS) was first coined by Muir et al in 1967 and Torre in 1968. It is an autosomal-dominant disorder characterized by combination of visceral disorder and sebaceous neoplasms. This syndrome is a subtype of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer. In most cases, it arises from germline mutation encoding mismatch repair (MMR) proteins. We encountered a case of MTS and relevant literatures were reviewed.
