Abstract: The author reviews the inheritance patterns of diseases or conditions caused by genes at a single locus. The recurrence risk in several common family situations is illustrated for autosomal recessive, autosomal dominant, and X-linked inheritance. Patients frequently have difficulty understanding these concepts, and a few examples are provided of problems encountered in genetic counselling.
