Exome Sequencing in BRCA1-2 Candidate Familias: The Contribution of Other Cancer Susceptibility Genes

Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (HBOC) syndrome is a condition in which the risk of breast and ovarian cancer is higher than in the general population. The prevalent pathogenesis is attributable to inactivating variants of the BRCA1-2 highly penetrant genes, however, other cancer susceptibility...
