lüll Genetic counseling and testing for common hereditary breast cancer syndromes: a paper from the 2007 William Beaumont hospital symposium on molecular pathology Allain DCJ Mol Diagn 2008[Sep]; 10 (5): 383-95Throughout the past 15 years, the identification of several genes associated with hereditary breast cancer has fueled the growth of clinical genetic counseling and testing services. In addition, increased knowledge of the genetic and molecular pathways of the known hereditary breast cancer genes, as well as an increased understanding of the impact of testing on individuals has added to the ability to identify, manage, and provide psychosocial support for mutation carriers. This review provides an overview of the clinical features, cancer risks, causative genes, and management for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome, Cowden syndrome, and Li-Fraumeni syndrome. This article summarizes the genetic counseling process and genetic test result interpretation, including a review of the key elements involved in the provision of risk assessment and informed consent, as well as a review of the risks, benefits, and limitations of cancer susceptibility genetic testing.|*Genetic Counseling[MESH]|*Genetic Testing[MESH]|Breast Neoplasms/diagnosis/*genetics[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Hamartoma Syndrome, Multiple/diagnosis/*genetics[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Li-Fraumeni Syndrome/diagnosis/*genetics[MESH]|Ovarian Neoplasms/diagnosis/*genetics[MESH]|Syndrome[MESH] |
