A high quality Postgraduate diploma that will provide you with the knowledge you need in clinical genetics in nephrourological, pediatric and cancer diseases, with the most extensive and up-to-date knowledge in the sector"

Between 5 and 10% of cancers are hereditary. Several hereditary cancer syndromes are currently known to affect diverse families. The consequences of cancer in general are devastating; therefore, it is essential to provide knowledge of the different syndromes of hereditary neoplasms and to know the criteria for identifying those families susceptible of carrying mutations in genes with a high risk of predisposition to hereditary cancer.

A wide variety of hereditary renal and urological diseases are currently known. These diseases affect children and adults alike and, in some cases, are often diagnosed in childhood, but their final stage does not develop until maturity. Advances in molecular genetics have considerably changed the classification of hereditary glomerular or cystic kidney diseases.

If we were to quantify the impact of genetic diseases at all ages of life we would see that: in 50% of first trimester abortions a chromosomal alteration is found; 2-3% of newborns have a congenital abnormality and, of these, at least 50% are genetic in origin; in developed countries, they are responsible for 20-30% of pediatric hospital admissions and 40-50% of infant mortality. Pediatric genetics plays a fundamental role and, therefore, we intend to offer a detailed and comprehensive approach to the most common diseases in this area, as well as to teach about the different tools that currently exist to provide diagnostic assistance, such as dysmorphology, its management, usefulness and limitations. In addition to deepening in the different existing and developing algorithms for the selection of diagnostic techniques in pediatrics at the genetic level.
