*

Eighteen cancers in 17 individuals. One person had breast cancer, colon cancer, and MDS at ages 43, 49, and 51 years.

Female genital included cervix, uterus, and vagina. Respective O/E ratios were 11.27 (0.29-62.78), 14.2 (0.36-79.14), and 270.81 (6.86-1508.83).

MDS is not included in the cancers. One patient had MDS followed by AML and is counted in both groups. A second patient is referred to above, with breast, colon, and MDS.
