Evaluating shared genetic influences on nonsyndromic cleft lip/palate and oropharyngeal neoplasms [PDF]

Population studies have found inconsistent evidence for increased incidence of cancer in nsCL/P cases, but several genes (e.g., CDH1, AXIN2) have been implicated in the aetiologies of both phenotypes.
