- In the compound heterozygous or homozygous state, biallelic pathogenic variants in PALB2 cause Fanconi anemia (FA) subtype N (Complementation Group N - FANCN), which is a severe genomic instability condition characterized by growth retardation, congenital malformations, skeletal abnormalities, hearing loss, intellectual disability, progressive bone marrow failure, anemia, and pediatric cancer susceptibility (acute leukemia in early childhood).

'''PALB2-Related Cancer Predisposition Syndrome:''' 
PALB2 related cancer predisposition syndrome is an autosomal dominant hereditary cancer susceptibility syndrome caused by heterozygous pathogenic or likely pathogenic germline variants in ''PALB2'' (Partner of BRCA2), a tumor suppressor gene that encodes a critical mediator of homologous recombination mediated DNA double strand break repair through its interaction with BRCA2<ref name=":0">Xia B, et al.

PALB2 is an integral component of the BRCA complex required for homologous recombination repair. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA. 2009;106:7155–7160.</ref>. The syndrome is primarily associated with a substantially increased lifetime risk of breast cancer, with cumulative risk estimates approaching those observed in ''BRCA2'' carriers in some families<ref>Antoniou AC, et al.
