Prevalence of BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations in unselected breast cancer patients from Medellín, Colombia

17 Apr 2014

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Approximately 5% of all breast cancers can be attributed to a mutation in the BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene. The genetic component of breast cancer in Colombia has been, for the most part, studied on cases from the Bogota region. Five different founder mutations were in two studies of breast cancer patients in the Bogota region. It is important that the frequency of mutations be established among unselected...
