Family history of pancreatic cancer in a high-risk cancer clinic: implications for risk assessment.

Journal of genetic counseling - 1 Aug 2008

Hall Michael J, Dignam James J, Olopade Olufunmilayo I

Abstract excerpt

Detailed family history is a critical element of cancer risk assessment. The relative importance of pancreatic cancer (PC) in a close family member, particularly in hereditary breast-ovarian syndrome (HBOS), is not clearly defined. We use a case-control design to investigate the importance of a family history of PC to cancer risk assessment. Case and control families were identified from the University of Chicago...
