Prevalence and characteristics of pancreatic cancer in families with BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations.

Familial cancer - 1 Jan 2009

Kim Daniel H, Crawford Beth, Ziegler John, Beattie Mary S

Abstract excerpt

A growing body of research describes cancers other than breast and ovarian in families with BRCA1/2 mutations, but the prevalence and characteristics of pancreatic cancer in these families has not been well described. This study was designed to: (1) estimate the prevalence of pancreatic cancer in BRCA1/2 positive families; (2) ascertain age of onset and gender distribution of pancreatic cancer in this cohort; and...
