Heterogeneity and natural history of hereditary breast cancer. Surgical implications.

The Surgical clinics of North America - 1 Aug 1990

Lynch H T, Fitzgibbons R J, Lynch J F

Abstract excerpt

The properly compiled cancer family history can prove to be one of the most cost-effective and powerful instruments for cancer control in breast cancer. Needed, however, is an understanding of the heterogeneity of hereditary breast cancer and knowledge of those facets of its natural history that...
