Summary
E relatives, ≥2 first-degree relatives, tumors of known hereditary cancer syndromes, rare tumors in ≥2 first-degree relatives, and ≥2 relatives in two generations in the case of tumors of the region or etiologically related regions, a genetic cause should be investigated [3]. During the genetic counseling, learning in detail the organs in which the primary tumors of the proband family reside will facilitate the selection of the responsible gene. According to the results of genetic testing, individuals or family members are informed about susceptibility to certain types of cancer and genetic counseling is provided.
