CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: Early recognition and long term care is important in patients with DC because of their propensity to develop malignancy, hematologic abnormalities, and infection. Better understanding of this disease may lead to insights into other disorders associated with abnormal telomere maintenance. PMID: 25244172 [PubMed - in process]
