"Genetic tumor syndromes of the head and neck: Update in the genomic era".

Abstract

Genetic tumor syndromes are due to inherited genetic mutations, which have recently come to the attention of clinicians due to the widespread adoption of DNA sequencing, ultimately leading to imaging for surveillance. As a result, radiologists must be familiar with the clinical, genetic, and radiologic features of these syndromes. This article reviews genetic tumor syndromes of the head and neck according to the recently updated WHO's 5th edition.
