Germline mutations in tumor suppressor genes and oncogenes lead to hereditary renal cell carcinoma (HRCC) diseases, characterized by a high risk of RCC and extrarenal manifestations. Patients of young age, those with a family history of RCC, and/or those with a personal and family history of HRCC-related extrarenal manifestations should be referred for germline testing. Identification of a germline mutation will allow for testing of family members at risk, as well as personalized surveillance programs to detect the early onset of HRCC-related lesions. The latter allows for more targeted and therefore more effective therapy and better preservation of renal parenchyma.
肿瘤抑制基因和癌基因的种系突变导致遗传性肾细胞癌(HRCC)疾病,其特征是肾细胞癌(RCC)和肾外表现的风险较高。年龄较小的患者、有 RCC 家族史的患者和/或有 HRCC 相关肾外表现个人和家族史的患者应进行种系检测。种系突变的鉴定将允许对有风险的家庭成员进行检测,并制定个性化的监测计划以检测 HRCC 相关病变的早期发生。后者可以进行更有针对性的治疗,从而更有效地治疗并更好地保留肾实质。
