Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Germline pathogenic variants (PVs) in BRCA1/2 genes are associated with breast cancer (BC) risk in both women and men. Multigene panel testing is being increasingly used for BC risk assessment, allowing the identification of PVs in genes other than BRCA1/2. While data on actionable PVs in other cancer susceptibility genes are now available in female BC, reliable data are still lacking in male BC...
