Abstract excerpt

About 5% of all ovarian-cancer cases are caused by a genetic predisposition, in particular as a component of the autosomal dominant hereditary breast-ovarian-cancer syndrome. This syndrome is usually due to germline mutations in the BRCA1- or BRCA2-gene. Ovarian and endometrial cancer also occur in families with hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC). This syndrome is caused by germline mutations in...
