This comprehensive overview focuses on PTEN, a vital tumor suppressor gene associated with Cowden Syndrome. Cowden Syndrome is characterized by multiple non-cancerous tumors and an increased risk of various cancers due to PTEN mutations. We explore the genetics of PTEN, implications for diagnosis and management, and the potential for targeted therapies. Understanding the role of PTEN in Cowden Syndrome is crucial for patients and healthcare professionals to navigate screening and preventive strategies effectively.
