The Role of Genetics in Breast and Reproductive Cancers
Of all factors contributing to breast cancer, family history of disease is the most powerful. Currently, our understanding of genetic predisposition to breast cancer includes three classes of genes as defined by their associated risks. BRCA1 and BRCA2 are high-penetrance breast cancer predisposition...
