Abstract excerpt
Testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) are highly heritable malignancies that display increasing incidence worldwide, with rising mortality rates particularly evident among Hispanic men. However, genomic studies of TGCT have largely focused on European cohorts, limiting accurate risk prediction in other populations. We investigated rare germline variants contributing to TGCT susceptibility in a Hispanic cohort. Exome...
