Approximately 30% of all hereditary diffuse gastric cancer (HDGC) families carry CDH1 germline mutations. The other two thirds remain genetically unexplained and are probably caused by alterations in other genes. Using polymerase chain reaction (PCR)/single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP)/sequencing, we screened 32 Portuguese families with a history of gastric cancer and 23 patients wit...
25-30% of families fulfilling the criteria for hereditary diffuse gastric cancer have germline mutations of the CDH1 (E-cadherin) gene. In light of new data and advancement of technologies, a multidisciplinary workshop was convened to discuss genetic testing, surgery, endoscopy and pathology reporting. The updated recommendations include broadening of CDH1 testing criteria such that: histologic...
The vast majority of gastric cancers are sporadic. However, 1-3% arise as a result of inherited gastric cancer predisposition syndromes, generally referred to as hereditary diffuse gastric cancer (HDGC). Of those families that fulfill the clinical criteria for HGDC only 25% have a CDH1 germline mutation. No reliable surveillance technique exists for individuals with HDGC. Difficult decisions ha...
Pulmonary tumor thrombotic microangiopathy (PTTM) causing fatal pulmonary hypertension is a rare presentation of malignancy. In general, patients with PTTM rapidly succumb to death due to severe hypoxia. To date, very few cases of PTTM have been reported in the literature; and most of these cases were from gastric cancer and were diagnosed on post mortem autopsy, as it is extremely challenging ...
Loss of function of the E-cadherin gene (CDH1) has been linked with diffuse gastric cancer susceptibility, and germline inactivating mutations in CDH1 characterise the hereditary diffuse gastric cancer (HDGC) syndrome. Hypermethylation in the CDH1 promoter region is a frequent phenomenon in poorly differentiated, diffuse gastric carcinomas and it was identified as the main mechanism for the ina...
Gastric cancer is considered to be the fifth highest incident tumor worldwide and the third leading cause of cancer deaths. Developing regions report a higher number of sporadic cases, but there are only a few local studies related to hereditary cases of gastric cancer in Brazil to confirm this fact. CDH1 germline mutations have been described both in familial and sporadic cases, but there is o...
