BACKGROUND Uterine cancer (UC) represents 5.1% of all female malignancies in Sweden. Accumulation of UC in families occurs in around 5% of cases. We wanted to identify any familial association between UC and other selected cancers and to study the frequency of Lynch,Cowden and cancer syndromes among consecutive UC patients in Sweden. METHODS 481 UC patients were included. Information on the c...
BACKGROUND Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC), or Lynch syndrome, accounts for 3% of newly diagnosed cases of colorectal cancer. While a partial or subtotal colectomy is indicated for early stage disease, there is a paucity of data addressing locally advanced disease involving the foregut. CASE PRESENTATION We report two patients with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer p...
BACKGROUND Therapy related myeloid neoplasms (t-MNs) are complex diseases originating from an interplay between exogenous toxicities and a susceptible organism. It has been hypothesised that in a subset of cases t-MNs develop in the context of hereditary cancer predisposition syndromes. METHODS The study systematically evaluated pedigrees of patients with t-MNs for cancer incidences and the p...
: Desmoid tumor (DT) is a fibroblastic proliferation arising in soft tissue characterized by localized infiltrative growth with an inability to metastasize but tendency recurrence. Nuchal-type fibromas are benign lesions that usually developed the posterior neck. The development of these neoplasms can be associated hereditary cancer predisposition syndrome, mainly familial adenomatous polyposis...
More than one-fifth of ovarian tumors have hereditary susceptibility and, in about 65-85% of these cases, the genetic abnormality is a germline mutation in BRCA genes. Nevertheless, several other suppressor genes and oncogenes have been associated with hereditary ovarian cancers, including the mismatch repair (MMR) genes in Lynch syndrome, the tumor suppressor gene, TP53, in the Li-Fraumeni syn...
INTRODUCTION cancer is the second leading cause of death in children between the ages of 0 and 14 years, corresponding to approximately 3% of all cases diagnosed in Brazil. A significant percentage (5-10%) of pediatric cancers are associated with hereditary cancer syndromes, including Li-Fraumeni/Li-Fraumeni-like syndromes (LFS/LFL), both of which are caused by TP53 germline mutations. Recent s...
Familial pancreatic cancer (FPC) is broadly defined as two first-degree-relatives with pancreatic cancer (PC) and accounts for 4%-10% of PC. Several genetic syndromes, including Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, hereditary pancreatitis, hereditary breast-ovarian cancer syndrome (HBOC), Lynch syndrome, and familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), also have increased risks of PC, but the narrowest definition ...
Although the incidence of gastric cancer is decreasing, there were still 159 900 new cases in Europe in 2006, and 118 200 deaths, representing the fifth highest incidence and fourth highest cause of cancer-related death. The peak incidence is in the seventh decade, and the male:female ratio exceeds 1.5. There is marked geographic variation. Risks include male gender, cigarette smoking, Helicoba...
OBJECTIVE Hereditary cancer testing guidelines are based on the premise that the common hereditary cancer syndromes have distinct, recognizable phenotypes. However, many syndromes present with overlapping cancers. The aim of this analysis was to identify the proportion of patients tested for Lynch syndrome (LS) or hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) who met testing criteria for the othe...
