The natural history registry study being led by the PTEN Foundation down in Alabama has some interesting numbers. Mind you, it has some self-selection problems. Top countries with identified patients dealing with PTEN Hamartoma Tumor Syndrome include: United States of America, Canada, Italy, United Kingdom, Australia, and Brazil. The most experienced doctors in terms of dealing with the syndrome are based in Cleveland, Ohio.

I know it is popular to think about running away from the dumpster fire that is the USA lately. There aren’t many routes that I could take. Milan is out as I don’t speak Italian. Brasilia is out as I don’t speak Portuguese. Toronto, Melbourne, and Soton are kinda possible yet somewhat high risk routes.

What a mess this is, right now…
