Genetic testing for breast cancer predisposition.

The Surgical clinics of North America - 1 Oct 1999

Gauthier-Villars M, Gad S, Caux V, Pagès S, Blandy C, Stoppa-Lyonnet D

Abstract excerpt

The recent identification of the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes has improved our understanding of the association between breast and ovarian cancers in certain families. Carriers of predisposing germline mutations must decide on different options for management, including close follow-up or prophylactic surgery. Further studies are needed to elucidate the optimal management of these patients and to identify the factors...
