AbstractThe inherited bone marrow failure syndromes (IBMFS) are rare disorders in which there is usually some form of bone marrow failure and typical changes in physical appearance, associated with a family history of the same disorder. Patients with IBMFS have a very high risk of developing myelodysplastic syndrome, acute myeloid leukemia, and solid tumors. The latest technology applied to the molecular pathogenesis of these disorders has led to identification of specific genetic mutations and now facilitates determining the appropriate diagnosis and management of afflicted patients. In this section, we describe physical and laboratory findings and management of the major IBMFS: Fanconi anemia, dyskeratosis congenita, Shwachman-Diamond syndrome, and Diamond Blackfan anemia. We also discuss their possible implications in the clinical features of Japanese patients.
