Abstract excerpt

The study aimed to determine whether hereditary ovarian cancers that are not caused by BRCA1/BRCA2 constitutional mutations are associated with a predisposition to cystadenoma. The study consisted of two parts. Part one concerned the incidence of ovarian cystadenoma in females from families with hereditary ovarian cancer unassociated with BRCA1 mutations. The study group included 62 female patients from 29...
