Somatic TP53 variants frequently confound germ-line testing results
Purpose Blood/saliva DNA is thought to represent the germ line in genetic cancer-risk assessment. Cases with pathogenic TP53 variants detected by multigene panel testing are often discordant with Li-Fraumeni syndrome, raising concern about misinterpretation of acquired aberrant clonal expansions (AC...

Zusammenfassung: | Purpose
Blood/saliva DNA is thought to represent the germ line in genetic cancer-risk assessment. Cases with pathogenic
TP53
variants detected by multigene panel testing are often discordant with Li-Fraumeni syndrome, raising concern about misinterpretation of acquired aberrant clonal expansions (ACEs) with
TP53
variants as germ-line results.
