Pulmonary fibrosis and/or bone marrow failure, telomere-related (PFBMFT) is also known as human telomere biology disorders, or short telomere syndromes. PFBMFT is a group of hereditary disorders caused by inherited loss-of-function mutations in telomere associated genes. It has a wide phenotypic spectrum that include bone marrow failure, pulmonary and liver fibrosis, mucocutaneous fragility, and predisposition to myelodysplastic syndromes and cancer.
