Clinical Considerations of BRCA1- and BRCA2-Mutation Carriers: A Review
hindawi.com — “Individuals who carry an inherited mutation in the breast cancer 1 (BRCA1) and BRCA2 genes have a significant risk of developing breast and ovarian cancer over the course of their lifetime. As a result, there are important considerations for the clinician in the counseling, followup and management of mutation carriers. This review outlines salient aspects in the approach to patients at high risk of developing breast and ovarian cancer, including criteria for genetic testing, screening guidelines” View full resource at hindawi.com

Breast Cancer Research | Abstract | Breastfeeding and the Risk of Breast Cancer in BRCA1 and BRCA2 Mutation Carriers
breast-cancer-research.com — “Breastfeeding has been inversely related to breast cancer risk in the general population. Clarifying the role of breastfeeding among women with a BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation may be helpful for risk assessment and for recommendations regarding prevention. We present an updated analysis of breastfeeding and risk of breast cancer using a large matched sample of BRCA mutation carriers.” View full resource at breast-cancer-research.com
