Abstract:
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the exemplar of how the understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of rare inherited disorders can inform an understanding of the key pathways involved in the pathogenesis of sporadic cancer. In this chapter we describe the clinical and pathological features of the inherited kidney cancer syndromes: von Hippel Lindau disease (VHL); Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome; hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cancer syndrome; succinate dehydrogenase disorders; hereditary papillary renal cancer; and translocation-associated kidney cancer. Though individually rare, recognition of individuals with familial kidney cancer is important as they present specific clinical challenges to the urological surgeon because of their propensity to develop multicentric/bilateral tumours. Furthermore, different familial RCC predisposition syndromes are associated with different extra renal clinical features and have specific surveillance needs. Despite differences in clinical features, there is some overlap in the molecular pathophysiology between the disorders and these highlight the key signalling pathways for RCC oncogenesis.

Abstract:
Breast cancer reviews the epidemiology and aetiology of this malignancy, with particular attention to the genetics underlying familial breast cancer, its pathology along with its receptors, oestrogen receptor (ER), the growth factor receptor HER2, and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), and the bearing these have on treatment and prognosis. The benefits of breast cancer screening in the population and families at higher risk are discussed. Presenting symptoms and signs are followed by investigation including examination, bilateral mammography, and core biopsy of suspicious lesions. Management of non-invasive in situ disease is considered. Invasive breast cancer is staged according to TNM guidelines. Early breast cancer is defined, managed frequently by breast conserving surgery and sentinel node biopsy from the axilla. A positive sentinel node biopsy requires clearance of the axilla. Larger lesions may require mastectomy. Breast radiotherapy is indicated after breast conserving surgery. Following surgery, the risk of systemic micrometastatic disease is estimated from the primary size, lymph node spread, and tumour grade. Adjuvant chemotherapy improves treatment outcome in all but very good prognosis premenopausal breast cancer, and intermediate or poor prognosis postmenopausal breast cancer. This is combined with trastuzumab in HER2 positive disease. Adjuvant endocrine therapy is recommended for all ER positive breast cancer, tamoxifen in premenopausal, aromatase inhibitors in postmenopausal women. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy may be used in large operable breast cancers to facilitate breast conserving surgery. Locally advanced breast cancer is defined, its high risk of metastatic disease requiring full staging before treatment. Systemic therapy is often best first treatment, according to receptor profile. Metastatic breast cancer although incurable can be controlled for years using endocrine therapy, chemotherapy, trastuzumab, palliative radiotherapy, and bisphosphonates as appropriate. Male breast cancer is uncommon, but management similar.

Abstract:
Chapter 5 reviews epidemiologic studies conducted to identify germline (inherited) susceptibility loci. These studies can involve associations observed within high-risk family pedigrees or in large studies of unrelated individuals. The chapter reviews the methods used to estimate the aggregate contribution of inherited genetic susceptibility and to identify specific genetic loci associated with risk. Although there is considerable variability across cancers, most cancers exhibit familial clustering, driven in part by a small number of known rare variants with large relative risks and a larger number of common variants with modest relative risks. The chapter discusses the implications of these findings for clinical care, public health, and tumor biology. It closes with a discussion of open questions, most notably the puzzle of “missing heritability”: the fact that—despite tremendous advances—multiple lines of evidence suggest that most specific risk variants, both rare and common, have yet to be discovered.

Abstract:
The small intestine extends 6–7 meters from the gastric pylorus to its insertion into the large intestine. Its mucosal surface contains 90% of the absorptive surface area of the digestive tract. Remarkably, in 2015, only about 3% of digestive system cancers and less than 1% of digestive cancer deaths in the United States were observed in the small intestine. In contrast, approximately 50% of cancers in the digestive tract were diagnosed in the large intestine, which measures just 1.5 meters in length. Cancers of the small intestine are among the most heterogeneous of gastrointestinal neoplasms, encompassing pathologic subtypes of neuroendocrine carcinoid, adenocarcinoma, lymphoma, and gastrointestinal stromal tumors. Adenocarcinoma accounted for ~25% to–35% of cancers in the small intestine, in contrast to over 90% of cancers in the large intestine. Genetic syndromes, such as familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) and hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC), predispose to adenocarcinoma in the small intestine.

Abstract:
Testicular germ cell tumours (GCTs) represent the most common solid malignancy of young men aged 15–40 years. The disease is rising in incidence. Germ cell tumours are best divided into those with pure seminoma and non-seminoma (NSGCT) histology. While cryptorchidism is clearly established as a risk factor, the pathogenesis of testicular cancer remains unknown. Familial studies and molecular analyses suggest an association to genetic alterations. Most testicular cancer patients present a primary tumour in the testis. Diagnostic examinations include testis palpation and ultrasound, and measurement of serum tumour markers (AFP, ß-HCG, and LDH). Surgical exploration is obligatory for suspected tumours and radical orchidectomy should be performed if a tumour is found. Prognosis and subsequent treatment depends upon the clinical stage and the IGCCCG classification (in case of advanced GCT disease).

Abstract:
Neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) is a genetic disorder caused by constitutional mutations in the NF2 tumor-suppressor gene. Bilateral vestibular schwannomas are the hallmark of the syndrome, though meningiomas, ependymomas, and other peripheral schwannomas are common. Inheritance is autosomal dominant and de novo mutations are found in about 50% of patients. Standard treatment for symptomatic tumors is surgery. Radiation therapy may be considered for progressive tumors that are not surgically accessible, but secondary cancers after radiation have been reported. Retrospective studies suggest that bevacizumab may be active for progressive vestibular schwannomas and trials of chemotherapy for NF2-related tumors are in progress. This chapter reviews the epidemiology, genetic features, clinical characteristics, and current treatments for patients with NF2.
