The genetic basis for dysplasia and tumors of the kidney has increasingly become the subject of cytogenetic and molecular genetic investigations over the last decade. For that reason, it is now possible to define the risk of disease recurrence more precisely in families with kidney diseases caused by genetic alterations. The relevant genes and the mutations have been identified for most of these diseases and...
