Renal carcinoma developed in two or more members of nine families. Multiple generations were affected in five kindreds, and siblings in four. The median age at cancer diagnosis was a decade earlier than usual, and individual patients had bilateral or multifocal lesions; these are features of hereditary forms of diverse cancers. No patient had von Hippel-Lindau disease or other predisposing genetic syndromes. Karyotypes of the peripheral blood of nine persons showed no instance of a 3;8 chromosome translocation as recently reported in association with renal carcinoma in ten members of one family. The findings show that familial renal cancer is more common than previously reported in the literature.
