Almost 6years RCC free, but my Dad has level 12 PSA BPH

StephAmbler85

Ok... I had CC RCC and open partial nephrectomy back In Jan of 2018. Found out I have MITF gene mutation which causes melanoma and RCC. I was dx at 32 yrs with 3.2 cm CC RCC on my Right kidney lower pole. Anyway, melanoma runs in my family along with lung, esophageal, pancreatic, ovarian, and other skin cancers. My Dad is 74 with BPH, and his father had the same with no cancer. My mom passed at 54 from esophageal cancer but from alcohol and smoking cigarettes. My dad's mom had ovarian cancer and died in her 50's a few months before I was born in 1985. Anyone know of any connection with MITF gene mutation and Prostate cancer? My dad is at a 12. 50% chance of getting it. And seems like he has beginning Alzheimer's at the young age of 74. Started memory issues at 65ish .
