Familial risk in testicular cancer as a clue to a heritable and environmental aetiology.

British journal of cancer - 4 May 2004

Hemminki K, Li X

Abstract excerpt

We used the nation-wide Swedish Family-Cancer Database to examine the risk for testicular cancer in offspring through parental and sibling probands. Among 0-68-year-old offspring, 4082 patients had testicular cancer in years 1961-2000, among whom 68 (1.67%) had an affected father/brother. Standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) for familial risk were four-fold when a father and nine-fold when a brother had...
