Abstract:
Presented here are 2 cases of carcinoma in young myelodysplastic patients. Even with current techniques of bowel and bladder management myelodysplastics remain at increased risk to develop carcinoma. Preventive measures must be introduced into this population. Counselling and yearly examinations to include visual inspection, cytological urinalyses and stool guaiacs should be performed.
