    Hereditary Cancer

    While cancer itself is not hereditary, a person can inherit certain mutations and genes that may cause a higher than normal chance of cancer manifesting. This can be seen when several family members manifest the same type of cancer. Common cancers that are considered hereditary are breast, and ovarian cancer, among others.
