Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Incidence of primary bilateral breast cancer (BC) is rare and does not exceed 5%. BRCA1/2 mutation carriers diagnosed with breast cancer have a strong life time risk of developing contralateral breast cancer (53% versus 2%). PATIENTS AND METHODS: A group of 108 patients with bilateral breast cancer, who reported at our Cancer Centres from 2000 to 2002, were subjected to genetic testing. Similarities...
