Summary

Hepatoblastoma (HB) and familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) are rarely linked, but this connection is crucial for patient management. Early identification of FAP in HB patients improves long-term outcomes.

Loss of Tumor Suppressor Gene Functions

Tumor suppressor genes are normal genes that can slow down cell division, repair DNA mistakes, or program the cells for apoptosis in case of irreparable damage. Hence, they play an essential role in preventing the proliferation of damaged cells.
When the tumor suppressor genes develop mutations or are lost, cells start growing out of control, leading to cancer. However, a single functional copy of the tumor suppressor gene is enough for the cells to maintain their normal functions and cell...
