What is the life expectancy of someone with Xeroderma Pigmentosum?

The life expectancy of someone with Xeroderma Pigmentosum all depends on when they were diagnosed.

But if someone is diagnosed later in life, there is a high chance that they have already begun to develop skin cancer and will not make it past their 20’s.
