Best practice & research. Clinical obstetrics & gynaecology - 1 Oct 2002

Frank Thomas S, Critchfield Gregory C

Abstract excerpt

The characterization of specific genes responsible for the hereditary risk of common cancers has enabled the development of clinical tests designed to identify at-risk individuals and to significantly improve the clinical outcome of such individuals. Two of the most important syndromes associated with a hereditary risk of cancer in women are hereditary breast and ovarian cancer, resulting from the BRCA1 and BRCA2...
