title: Turcot's syndrome.
abstract: A non-familial case of cerebellar medulloblastoma associated with adenomatous polyposis coli is described and the literature is reviewed. This is the second reported case of Turcot's syndrome in Australia. A greater understanding of the genetic implications of this rare condition might be achieved through reporting of cases and long-term documentation with polyposis registries.
