[Hereditary prostate cancer].
About 10% of the prostate cancer cases were recognized as familial or hereditary. Till now gene/genes responsible for hereditary prostate cancer are not identified. Hereditary prostate cancer case concerning 3 brothers in family of 6 siblings from first marriage and a grandson from second marriage was presented. Two brothers were treated radical prostatectomy because of confined disease. The third brother with spreading disease died after androgen blockade management. We did not find any linkage between chosen markers of PCaP region (Predisposing for Prostate Cancer) and prostate cancer occurrence in this family.
