Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: While the majority of germline inactivating mutations in BRCA1/2 are small-scale mutations, large genomic rearrangements (LGRs) are also detected in a variable proportion of patients. However, routine genetic methods are incapable of detecting LGRs, and comprehensive genetic testing algorithm is necessary. METHODS: We performed multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification assay for small-scale...
