Abstract

Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by hypersensitivity to ultraviolet rays and predisposition to cutaneous malignancies. Hematological disorders associated with XP include myelodysplastic syndrome and acute leukemia. We report a 7-year-old child with XP along with squamous cell carcinoma and bone marrow aplasia.
