Both these children shared similar characteristics like café-au-lait appearance,blue sclerotics, numerous moles over the body and both suffered from insomnia. So, out of curiosity foubester investigated 200 cases in his OPD, of kids with similar appearance for a history of cancer & found that there was a strong family history of cancer, diabetes mellitus, and tuberculosis.
