Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Familial nervous system cancers are rare and limited data on familial aspects are available particularly on site-specific tumours. METHODS: Data from five Nordic countries were used to analyse familial risks of nervous system tumours. Standardised incidence ratios (SIRs) were calculated for offspring of affected relatives compared with offspring of non-affected relatives. RESULTS: The total number of...
