Risk factors and prognostic factors in patients with double primary cancer: epithelial ovarian cancer and breast cancer.

European journal of gynaecological oncology - 1 Jan 2005

Cvelbar M, Ursic-Vrscaj M, Rakar S

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The most important known risk factor for ovarian cancer is the BRCA1-2 mutation, which is clinically often manifested through a positive family history of cancer of the breast and/or ovary. Whether other risk factors and prognostic factors in women with a positive family history of cancer of the breast and/or ovary and/or with BRCA1-2 mutation are important remains to be elucidated....
