Absence of genetic abnormalities in fibroadenomas of the breast determined at p53 gene mutations and microsatellite alterations.

Abstract excerpt

Genesis of breast cancer is a multistage process involving accumulation of genetic alterations, but little is known about the implication of genetic alterations in benign breast disease (BBD) lesions. Among benign lesions of the breast, one of the most common is fibroadenoma. The relationship between fibroadenoma and breast cancer is not clear. Some epidemiological studies show an association with breast cancer...
