BRCA2 mutation in a family with hereditary prostate cancer.

Genes, chromosomes & cancer - 1 Mar 2001

Abstract excerpt

Hereditary prostate cancer is a genetically heterogeneous disease, and so far four different susceptibility loci have been identified. Reports of associated cancers are few, and it is generally considered a site-specific disease. However, some reports have shown an elevated risk for prostate cancer among BRCA2 mutation carriers. In this report, we present a family in which the father and four of his sons were...
