Abstract
Biallelic variants in DI3SL2 cause Perlman Syndrome, associated increased risk for Wilms tumor. Cutis Marmorata Telangiectatica Congenita (CMTC) is a rare congenital disorder characterized by cutaneous vascular anomalies. We report a 2-year-old boy with both Wilms tumor and CMTC. Genetic testing, prompted by his complex presentation, revealed 1 somatic mutation and 1 familial germline mutation in the DIS3L2 gene, suggesting a 2-hit causation of Wilms tumor. Separately, a single GNA11 somatic mutation was identified to explain the CMTC. We suggest that genetic testing for germline mutations associated with Wilms tumor susceptibility be considered even in cases without known family history.
