Histopathological features of 'BRCAX' familial breast cancers in the kConFab resource.

Pathology - 1 Jun 2008

Abstract excerpt

AIMS: In recent years histopathology has made an important contribution to the study of familial breast cancer, largely on the basis of the distinctive cancer phenotype commonly identified in BRCA1-mutation carriers. The aim of this study was to identify this phenotype amongst index cases from families in the kConFab familial breast cancer resource with no known pathogenic mutation ('BRCAX' families). METHODS:...
