Principles of genetic predisposition to malignancies [PDF]
It is estimated that around 30% of all malignancies are caused by a "high-risk" genetic predisposition [1]. This estimation is based on an evaluation of occurrence of disease among monozygotic twins. If one of them is affected with prostate (PC) or breast cancer (BC), then the probability of occurrence of this disease in the second sibling is 40% for ...
