Abstract excerpt
Hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) is primarily associated with mutations in the BRCA1/2 genes. However, causal variants in other high, moderate, and low penetrance genes proportionally increase the risk of breast/ovarian cancer. This study aims to provide data about the mutation spectrum of HBOC-associated genes in Slovak HBOC families and estimate the ratio of BRCA versus non-BRCA causal variants. We...
