Abstract
We report the case of a 32-year-old woman who presented with multiple squamous cell neoplasms synchronously arising in the cervix, vulva, oral cavity and oropharynx. During the period when the patient was treated by radiotherapy, she developed severe radiation mucositis and pancytopenia. Immunofluorescence staining for foci of the monoubiquitinated form of FANCD2 revealed a complete absence of such foci in all cancer tissues that were examined.
