Abstract

Question: A 13-year-old girl undergoing surveillance for a familial condition had a brain mass identified on total body magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). She underwent brain MRI, which showed a mass lesion (Figure A). The lesion was resected and histology was consistent with an anaplastic astrocytoma. Her brother had been diagnosed with metastatic duodenal adenocarcinoma at 11 years of age. The family history was significant as parents were first cousins. No other cancers in relatives could be confirmed.
