Scenario
A family history genogram for hereditary breast/ovarian cancer, documented at the initial genetic counseling intake before formal pedigree analysis. For standardized clinical pedigree notation (NSGC), use the Pedigree diagram type instead.

How to read
The maternal grandmother (I_2) had ovarian cancer and is deceased. Her daughter (II_1) developed breast cancer. The proband (III_1, index) is a third-generation female with breast cancer — the inheritance pattern spanning three generations justifies BRCA genetic testing.
