Though my incredible breast surgeon,Dr. Beth Dupree, tested me for a BRCA gene mutation that first day we met, and though she contacted the company she trusts most,Myriad Oncology, personally and put a rush on it, it wasn’t until two weeks later I found out I had tested positive for ...

Little is known about how the breast cancer (BRCA) gene mutation affects women’s decision-making processes. I use a feminist standpoint lens to explore the process by which BRCA-positive women came to socially construct and understand their risk for developing breast and/or ovarian cancer and ...
Analysis of BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations in Brazilian breast cancer patients with positive family history BRCA1 and BRCA2 are the two principal hereditary breast cancer susceptibility genes, and the prevalence of their mutations among Brazilian women is unknown. The objective was to detect BRCA1 and ...
The same BRCA1 mutations were also detected in 4 unaffected relatives of the two positive cases. In addition to the two protein-truncating mutations, a missense mutation at nucleotide 3232 (A/G), was detected in a 32-year-old breast cancer patient. In conclusion, exon 11 truncating germline...
