In medical genetics, the Family Tree (Pedigree) is a clinical document that uses standardized symbols to depict kinship relationships and health statuses among family members, visualizing the inheritance pattern of diseases across generations.

## İçerik

Approximately 5-10% of cancers result from hereditary mutations. Drawing a family tree serves to distinguish whether a cancer developed incidentally or as a result of a genetic predisposition. Why is it important? Identifying Individuals at Risk: Calculating the risk ratio of family members who do not yet show symptoms of the disease. Genetic Testing Strategy: Deciding which genes (BRCA1, Lynch Syndrome genes, etc.) should be tested. Personalized Screening: Starting check-ups without waiting for the standard screening age if high risk is present. Preventive Measures: Prophylactic surgeries or intensive medication follow-up. Pedigree Depth To trace genetic inheritance, a depth of at least three generations must be reached. First-degree relatives (mother, father, siblings, children), second-degree relatives (grandparents, aunts, uncles), and third-degree relatives (cousins, nieces/nephews) are questioned.
