    Some types of cancer run in certain families, but most cancers are not clearly linked to the genes we inherit from our parents.

    Yes, some have been linked to a genetic defect or the presence of a specific gene.  This is why a family Dr. will question you about the health of your parents, and siblings.  My brother died of a cancer back in '84, and they wanted to examine all of the siblings for the presence of the disease.
