Germline mutations of p53 tumor gene linked to Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS) are associated with an increased risk of cancer

2022-11-18

Abstract excerpt

Choroid plexus carcinomas (CPCs) are rare pediatric tumors often associated with Li-Fraumeni Syndrome (LFS). In LFS, TP53 mutations are involved. A germline mutation in the TP53 gene has been found in about three-quarters of families with Li-Fraumeni syndrome and one-quarter of families with Li-Fraumeni-like syndrome. LFS is a complex predisposition to inherited cancer associated with early cancer in different tis...
