Hereditary Cancer Syndromes
At Faisalabad Cancer Center, we recognize that cancer can sometimes run in families. While most cancers develop due to lifestyle and environmental factors, hereditary cancer syndromes account for up to 10% of all cancers. Identifying these genetic risks early can be life-saving — not just for patients, but for their families too.
Hereditary Cancer Syndromes
Hereditary cancer syndromes occur when genetic mutations (usually inherited from a parent) increase a person’s risk of developing certain types of cancer. These mutations can be passed from generation to generation, meaning multiple family members may be affected by the same or related cancers.
Common Hereditary Cancer Syndromes Include:
- BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations – Linked to breast, ovarian, prostate, and pancreatic cancers
- Lynch Syndrome – Increases the risk of colorectal, uterine, ovarian, and stomach cancers
- Li-Fraumeni Syndrome – Associated with sarcomas, breast cancer, brain tumors, and adrenal cancers
- FAP (Familial Adenomatous Polyposis) – Affects the colon and can lead to colorectal cancer
- Cowden Syndrome – Increases risk of breast, thyroid, and uterine cancers
Do You Have a Family History of Cancer?
- You may benefit from genetic counseling or testing if:
- Multiple relatives have had the same or related types of cancer
- Cancer was diagnosed at a young age (under 50)
- A family member had more than one type of cancer
- Male relatives had breast cancer
- There is a known genetic mutation in the family
