Abstract EN
A good genetic counseling, followed by appropriate examinations, sometimes requires the participation of any family members – parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins – thus leading to accurate knowledge of the genome of each individual.
This is far from inconsequential.
While genetic testing can disrupt life plans, influence the choice of spouse or procreation, or a sense of guilt among healthy individuals, they may also reveal some families information not sought from the first glance as false paternity or a positive result from a person still asymptomatic.
How then react ? Is there an appropriate attitude to adopt ? If yes, which one? Is it free of any side effects ?
