Purpose: Keratoconus (KC) is a bilateral, asymmetric disease causing corneal thinning, irregular astigmatism, and vision decline, with unclear etiology. This study aims to investigate pathogenic variants of candidate genes in Chinese KC families via whole exome sequencing (WES).

Methods: The Pentacam 3D anterior segment analysis system was applied for keratectasia detection, and the Corvis ST was used for corneal biomechanics measurement.

Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) involves the expansion of hematopoietic stem cells with ageacquired mutations linked to myeloid malignancy. Advances in next-generation and single-cell sequencing, along with computational modeling, have expanded our ability to detect both common and rare CH drivers, including single-nucleotide variants and mosaic chromosomal alterations, with increasing sensitivity. While sequencing methods differ in accuracy, cost, and ability to detect low-frequency variants, they have deepened our understanding of CH biology.

Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome (KTS) is a rare inherited disorder presenting as a triad of capillary malformations (cutaneous hemangiomas), soft tissue hypertrophy, and varicosities. Two out of three signs are enough to make a diagnosis. It is associated with gastrointestinal, hematological, neuro-ophthalmic, dermatological, pulmonary, oro-dental, renal cardiac, and vascular complications.

Objective: To review the genetic basis, clinical characteristics, and management strategies of hereditary gynecologic cancers associated with hereditary cancer syndromes.

Methods: Literature on germline mutations, inheritance patterns, clinical manifestations, and fertility preservation strategies was reviewed.

Results: Germline pathogenic mutations, predominantly inherited in an autosomal dominant manner, increase susceptibility to gynecologic tumors with varying risks.
