Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Hereditary factors have been reported in 5-10% of cases with exocrine pancreatic cancer and recent data support a role for BRCA2. AIMS: We have studied the prevalence of germline BRCA2 mutations in two groups of patients with exocrine pancreatic cancer from an unselected series in Spain: group A included 24 cases showing familial aggregation of cancer and group B included 54 age, sex, and hospital...
