摘要
The first known cancer family would be described today as having hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer, in which, as in familial adenomatous polyposis, the emergence of a malignancy requires a seemingly unlikely sequence of somatic mutations, superimposed on a risk-conveying inheritance. Events identified in the inherited syndromes are proving crucial in learning precisely how nonfamilial tumors develop.
