Li–Fraumeni syndrome

(

• Back to T:TDYK
• Article history

)

• ... that Li–Fraumeni syndrome is characterized by early onset of cancer, a wide variety of types of cancers, often rare, and development of multiple primary cancers throughout one's life?

• Hisada M, Garber JE, Fung CY, Fraumeni JF Jr, Li FP. Multiple primary cancers in families with Li-Fraumeni syndrome. J Natl Cancer Inst. 1998 Apr 15;90(8):606-11. doi: 10.1093/jnci/90.8.606. PMID: 9554443.

• Reviewed:
• Comment: With the increased access to genetic testing, more people are being diagnosed with a variant in their TP53 gene (a tumor suppressor). TP53 is the most studied human genome in the world. When it doesn't work correctly, multiple cancers can develop in individuals. It has decimated families with early cancer deaths but genetic testing followed by appropriate imaging and screening can result in early cancer detection - and that can save lives. Li-Fraumeni syndrome can also affect cancer treatment.
