Hereditary Ovarian Cancer: Not Only BRCA 1 and 2 Genes

Hereditary Ovarian Cancer: Not Only BRCA 1 and 2 Genes

More than one-fifth of ovarian tumors have hereditary susceptibility and, in about 65–85% of these cases, the genetic abnormality is a germline mutation in BRCA genes. Nevertheless, several other suppressor genes and oncogenes have been associated with hereditary ovarian cancers, including the misma...
