Zusammenfassung

Das Li-Fraumeni-Syndrom (LFS) ist ein autosomal-dominant vererbtes,neoplastischesSyndrom und durch das Auftreten multipler Tumoren im Kindes- und frühen Erwachsenenalter charakterisiert. Bei den LFS-assoziierten Neoplasien handelt es sich in erster Linie um Brustkrebs, Weichteilsarkome und Knochensarkome sowie ein vermehrtes Auftreten von Hirntumoren, Leukämien und Karzinomen der Nebennierenrinde(Li u. Fraumeni 1969; Li et al. 1988). Die Mehrzahl der LFS-Patienten hat eine Keimbahnmutation im TP53-Tumorsuppressorgen (Malkin et al. 1990; Srivastava et al. 1990; Varley, et al. 1997). Bei einigen Familien, die die Kriterien des LFS oder von LFS-Varianten erfüllen, wurde eine heterozygote Keimbahnmutation des hCHK2-Gens nachgewiesen (Bell et al. 1999).
