Family with a multiple cancer syndrome
Journal Title: Human & Veterinary Medicine - International Journal of the Bioflux Society - Year 2012, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Objective: We present the clinical data of a family with a multiple cancer syndrome. Material and Methods: we made a chart of this family and analysed the clinical data offered by some members of the family; the genetic tests were not available for the members of the family. Results: The evolution of the cancers was good but not in all the cases. Many of them are alive, and in good condition. Conclusion: the family with these multiple malignant tumors can be incorporated into a Lynch syndrome, but we do not have the genetic tests for the 5 known modified genes in hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer syndrome.
