Pedigree showing some of the classic features of a family 

with a deleterious RET mutation across four generations,

including transmission occurring through paternal lineage.

The unaffected female proband is shown as having an affected 

brother (medullary thyroid cancer diagnosed at age 22 y and 

hyperparathyroidism diagnosed at age 24 y), father (medullary 

thyroid cancer diagnosed at age 54 y and pheochromocytoma

diagnosed at age 67 y), and paternal aunt (medullary thyroid 

cancer diagnosed at age 38 y).
