Breast cancer in patients with brca mutation: case series

Mutation Screening of BRCA Genes in 10 Iranian Males with Breast Cancer

Male breast cancer is a rare disease with an increasing trend. Due to limited information especially about the genetic basis of the disease in Iran and the lower age of its onset, the disease requires more attention. The aim of this study was to screen the male patients with breast cancer for BRCA mutations as well as tissue markers of estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), human e...

Breast cancer following ovarian cancer in BRCA mutation carriers.

IMPORTANCE BRCA mutation carriers are at increased risk of developing breast cancer. However, the incidence of breast cancer after a diagnosis of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), one of the tubal/peritoneal cancers collectively referred to as pelvic serous carcinomas, is not well known. Optimal breast cancer surveillance and detection for these patients have also not been well characterized. ...

Exome sequencing in a breast cancer family without BRCA mutation

PURPOSE We performed exome sequencing in a breast cancer family without BRCA mutations. MATERIALS AND METHODS A family that three sisters have a history of breast cancer was selected for analysis. There were no family members with breast cancer in the previous generation. Genetic testing for BRCA mutation was negative, even by the multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification method. Two s...
