Abstract/OtherAbstract:
In patients with Down's syndrome, the frequency of leukemia is significantly greater than normally would be expected. However, cancers other than leukemia have been reported to occur rarely. We present a case of Down's syndrome associated with intracranial germinoma and testicular embryonal carcinoma. Currently, no case of double primary carcinomas in Down's syndrome has been reported to the authors' knowledge.
