Ovarian surface epithelium: family history and early events in ovarian cancer.

Reproductive biology and endocrinology : RB&E - 7 Oct 2003

Wong Alice S T, Auersperg Nelly

Abstract excerpt

Ovarian cancer is the most common cause of death from gynecological cancers in the Western world. There are many genetic and environmental factors which can influence a woman's risk of getting ovarian cancer. A strong family history of breast or ovarian cancer is definitely one of the most important and best-defined epidemiological risk factors. This review evaluates current knowledge of hereditary ovarian...
