   Sammanfattning : Malignant melanoma and breast cancer are common malignant diseases characterized by considerable heterogeneity with respect to genetics, histopathology, biology and clinical course. In breast cancer, two major susceptibility genes have been identified, BRCA1 and BRCA2, which account for a significant proportion of high-risk breast cancer families. LÄS MER

   Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is the most common female malignancy in the Western world and approximately 510% of all breast cancer cases present with some degree of family history. In the mid-nineties genetic linkage analyses successfully identified two breast cancer predisposing genes, BRCA1 and BRCA2. LÄS MER

   Sammanfattning : Apart from gender, family history is the most important risk factor for breast cancer. In 5-10 % of the cases there is a family history pattern of an autosomal dominant disease and there is also a familial clustering of breast cancer associated with a more modest increased risk of the disease.
