Abstract
Molecular tumor testing has transformed the treatment of patients with malignancies and is helping catalyze the development of novel therapeutic strategies. In a recent issue of The New England Journal of Medicine, Arakawa et al. describe two cases of pediatric lung cancer resulting from mother-to-infant transmission, diagnosed remote from delivery.1.
