Hereditary Breast Cancer: Part I. Diagnosing Hereditary Breast Cancer Syndromes

open access: yesThe Breast Journal, 2008
Hereditary breast cancer (HBC) accounts for as much as 10% of the total BC burden. Most of these cases will be found to be due to a BRCA germline mutation. An estimated additional 15-20% of those affected with BC will have one or more first- and/or second-degree relatives with BC.
