Challenges and Considerations on Risk-Reducing Surgery in <i>BRCA1/2</i> Patients with Advanced Breast Cancer

Challenges and Considerations on Risk-Reducing Surgery in <i>BRCA1/2</i> Patients with Advanced Breast Cancer

Cancer survivors harboring inherited pathogenic variants in the breast cancer (BC) susceptibility genes <i>BRCA1</i> or <i>BRCA2</i> are at increased risk of ovarian cancer (OC) and also of contralateral BC. For these women, risk-reducing surgery (RRS) may contribute to risk...
