    Notes: [Auszug] The problem with humans, at least from the perspective of genetic diagnostics, is that they have two copies of each of their chromosomes (diploidy). Mutations in one copy of a chromosome pair can therefore be obscured by the normal sequence present on the other copy of the chromosome. Here we ...

    Notes: Familial atypical multiple mole melanoma (FAMMM) syndrome, a cancer-associated genodermatosis, is a dominantly inherited heterogeneous disorder with variable expressivity of both its cutaneous and cancer phenotypes. By using a verified historical review technique of cancer documentation (idout patient health records, pathology reports/slides, autopsy reports/slides, and death certificates) of all anatomic sites in all members of a modified nuclear pedigree (first-degree relatives plus maternal and paternal grandparents, aunts, and uncles) over several generations, we showed that the FAMMM syndrome is similar to the majority of autosomal dominant inherited cancer-associated genodermatoses and has excessive risk for cancer of multiple anatomic sites. With respect to the FAMMM syndrome, these cancers involved the breast, respiratory tract, gastrointestinal system, the eye (intraocular melanoma), and the lymphatic system. These FAMMM pedigrees showed some of the following distinctive characteristics of hereditary cancer: 1) integral patterns of cancer within and between pedigrees; 2) early age of onset of cancer; 3) prolonged survival of some pedigree members with cancer; and 4) an excess of multiple primary melanomas and cancers of variable anatomic sites. The presence of these features indicates that these cancers of variable anatomic sites may be etiologically associated with the FAMMM syndrome. Heterogeneity should be investigated in FAMMM pedigrees with attention to consistent differences in size and distribution of atypical lesions, age at cancer onset, and pattern of tumor occurrences. The occurrence of FAMMM pedigrees in the general population or among pedigrees of probands with atypical nevi is not known. The occurrence of systemic cancers in these FAMMM pedigrees requires the development of cancer surveillance programs that are specifically modified to the particular cancer pattern of each pedigree.

    Notes: [Auszug] Hodgkin's disease (HD) is poorly understood. Its aetiology is complex, with a layering of environmental and genetic causes. This disorder (or disorders) clusters bimodally in young and old adults. A proposed environmental factor in the younger-onset form has been a childhood infectious agent, ...

    Notes: [Auszug] Sir — The familial breast cancer susceptibility genes BRCA1 and BRCA2 encode proteins which have been suggested to bear homology to the granin family of secreted proteins1. A perfect granin consensus is found in BRCA1 (residues 1214–1223) and a match of six of the seven constrained ...

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Le cancer du sein héréditaire (CSH) est cliniquement et génétiquement hétérogène. au point de vue clinique, le cancer dbute habituellement à un âge jeune, est souvent bilatéral, et est parfois associé à d'autres cancers primitifs, comme par exemple dans le syndrome de cancer héréditaire du sein et de l'ovaire (SCO). On peut également observer d'autres génotypes présumés susceptibles de donner des cancers du sein héréditaires ainsi que le syndrome Li-Fraumeni (SBLA), caractérisé par l'envahissement des trois couches germinales et comprenant les tumeurs sarcomateuses, les tumeurs du cerveau, les leucémies, les lymphomes, et des cancers des corticosurrénales associées à des cancers du sein à un âge précoce. Le cancer du sein est parfois associé à la maladie de Cowden, une maladie autosomique dominante, et la télangiectasie ataxique, une maladie autosomique récessive. Des exemples de “pedigrees” de plusieurs types des CSH sont présentés, soulignant l'hétérogénéité de ce syndrome. La plus récente identification du gène BRCA1 et son rôle dans le cancer du sein et le syndrome HBOC est un nouveau challenge pour le généticien d'aujourd'hui. Nous passons en revue nos attitudes de conseil génétique comprenant à la fois les recommandations de surveillance nouveau challenge pour le généticien d'aujourd'hui. Nous passons en revue nos attitudes de conseil génétique comprenant à la fois les recommandations de surveillance et d'attitude thérapeutiques compatibles avec l'histoire naturelle des CSH, et qui ont trait au développement future des Centres spécialisés pour évaluer ces CSH dans le but l'améliorer leur contrôle.
    Abstract: Resumen El cáncer mamario hereditario (CMH) exhibe una gran heterogeneidad clínica y genética. Desde el punto de vista clínico, se observa el comienzo del cáncer mamario en una edad temprana, una tasa considerable de bilateralidad, y patrones de múltiples cánceres primarios, tal como la combinación de carcinomas mamario y ovárico en el síndrome del cáncer de seno-ovario hereditarios (CSOH). Además del CSOH, se puede observar una variedad de genotipos putativos propensos al cáncer, incluyendo el cáncer mamario hereditario de ubicación específica y el síndrome de Li-Fraumeni, que se caracteriza por cánceres que afectan a todas las tres capas germinales, incluyendo sarcomas, tumores cerebrales, leucemia, linfoma y carcinoma adrenocortical, además de un notorio comienzo precoz del cáncer mamario. El cáncer mamario también se asocia con la enfermedad de Cowden hereditaria y autosómica dominante y con la ataxia-telangiectasia autosómicamente recesiva. Se presentan ejemplos de pedigríes que ilustran diversos síndromes de CMH, con el objeto de demostrar la heterogeneidad del CMH. La reciente identificación del gen BRCA1 en el cáncer mamario hereditario, de ubicación específica y de comienzo temprano, y el sindrome CSOH, ha significado nuevos desafíos para el consejero genético. En este artículo hacemos una revisión de la consejería genética que se refiere a la vigilancia y a las recomendaciones sobre manejo que corresponda a la historia natural del CMH, y enfocamos el concepto en cuanto al desarrollo de centros de especializados en CMH, con el propósito de mejorar el control del cáncer.
    Notes: Abstract Hereditary breast cancer (HBC) shows extant clinical and genetic heterogeneity. Clinically one finds the onset of breast cancer at an early age, an excess of bilaterality, and patterns of multiple primary cancer such as combinations of breast and ovarian carcinoma in the hereditary breast-ovarian cancer (HBOC) syndrome. In addition to HBOC, one sees a variety of putative breast cancer-prone genotypes inclusive of hereditary site-specific breast cancer, and the Li-Frameni (SBLA) syndrome that is characterized by cancers involving all three germinal layers including sarcomas, brain tumors, leukemia, lymphoma, and adrenal cortical carcinoma in addition to often markedly early-onset breast cancer. Breast cancer is also associated with autosomal dominantly inherited Cowden's disease and autosomal recessively inherited ataxia-telangiectasia. Examples of pedigrees depicting clincal examples of these several HBC syndromes are presented in order to describe HBC's heterogeneity. The recent identification of the BRCA1 gene in early-onset hereditary sitespecific breast cancer and the HBOC syndrome has led to new challenges for the genetic counselor. We review genetic counseling, which embraces surveillance and management recommendations that are responsive to the natural history of HBC and address the concept for future development of centers of expertise for HBC in the interest of improving cancer control.
