Surgical menopause in patients with BRCA mutation, the role of hormone therapy
Introduction: Women with BRCA1/2 (mBRCA) mutation have an increased risk of developing breast (BC) and ovarian (OC) cancer. Bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (BOS) is associated with an 80% risk reduction for OC and 50% for BC. The recommended age for this

BRCA Share: A Collection of Clinical BRCA Gene Variants. [PDF]
As next-generation sequencing increases access to human genetic variation, the challenge of determining clinical significance of variants becomes ever more acute. Germline variants in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes can confer substantial lifetime risk of breast and ovarian cancer.

Primary multiple BRCA associated breast cancer and ovarian cancer (clinical case)
Introduction. The study of mutation in BRCA1/2 genes was first initiated in the USA and Europe, and later in Russia. Statistics indicate that women with the BRCA1/BRCA2 mutation have a higher risk of breast and/or ovarian cancer than the general ...

Triple-negative breast cancer arising in a fibroadenoma in BRCA 1 mutated patient
We describe the case of a 35-year-old woman who comes to our institute with a palpable lump on her left breast. Clinically the mass was mobile, nontender and with no nipple discharge. Sonography revealed a circumscribed, oval-shaped, and hypoechoic mass,

BRCA mutations and reproduction [PDF]
Deleterious mutations in BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes have long been recognized as independent risk factors, mostly for breast and ovarian cancer. Numerous studies have evaluated the molecular processes involving these genes, the pathophysiology of BRCAness, follow up options and modes of prophylaxis.

BRCA Mutations and Fertility Preservation [PDF]
Hereditary cancers mostly affect the adolescent and young adult population (AYA) at reproductive age. Mutations in BReast CAncer (BRCA) genes are responsible for the majority of cases of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. BRCA1 and BRCA2 act as tumor suppressor genes as they are key regulators of DNA repair through homologous recombination. Evidence
