How a woman's myomectomy saved her father's life: evidence of fumarate hydratase-deficient uterine leiomyoma and early detection of germline variants in fumarate hydratase
Objective: To describe a case of a personal and family history of early uterine leiomyomatosis that revealed a pathogenic variant in the FH gene encoding fumarate hydratase. After the patient's diagnosis, a first-degree relative was detected with early-stage renal cell carcinoma. The patient de...
