Description : Hereditary diffuse gastric cancer is an autosomal dominant cancer predisposition syndrome.
Heterozygous CDH1 mutation carriers have a 70 to 80% lifetime risk of developing diffuse
gastric cancer. In addition to gastric cancer, up to 60% of female mutation carriers
develop lobular carcinoma of the breast, and some carriers may develop colorectal
cancer. Identification of mutation carriers is important, because the characteristic
