[Basal cell epithelioma and multiple fibroepithelial Pinkus' tumors in the lumbosacral region. Discussion of the precipitating role of previous radiotherapy treatment. Apropos of 4 cases].
The authors report 4 cases of multiple tumors of the lumbo-sacral region with, on histology, a mixture of basal cell carcinomas and fibro-epithelial Pinkus tumours. They were struck by the fact that three of these four patients had received, in this region, radiotherapy numerous years previously. They discuss the role of this radiotherapy in the onset of the disease and the relative importance of this factor and of constitutional factors (Hamartomas). They recall the characteristics of multiple basal cell carcinomas and of Pinkus fibro-epithelial tumours, together with the close relationship between these two types of tumour.
