    Author: Ma S, Hu Y, Yang J, Zhou X.
    Journal: Clin Neurol Neurosurg; 2013 Feb; 115(2):117-20. PubMed ID: 22676959.
    Abstract:
    A 15-year-old boy was admitted with the diagnosis of colonic polyposis, and during a 2-year follow-up, he underwent operation for right parieto-occipital anaplastic astrocytoma, left-side colonic non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and cerebella glioblastoma which were all confirmed by histology. Although cases of Turcot's syndrome (TS) (colonic polyposis and primary brain tumour occurring in the same patient) have been previously described, association with haematological malignancy is rare. We hereby report such a case with TS.
