Breast cancer surveillance in BRCA positive Sri Lankan women: health equity for a high-risk group at a limited resource setting

2023-06-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> BRCA1 and BRCA2 pathogenic variants account for 90% of hereditary breast malignancies, incurring a lifetime breast cancer risk of 85% and 40-45% respectively, in affected individuals. Well-resourced health care settings offer genetic counselling and genetic screening for susceptible individuals, followed by intense breast cancer surveillance programmes for those identified at high risk of bre...
