abstract：:The contribution of BRCA1 and BRCA2 to breast cancer incidence in Brazil has not yet been explored. In order to estimate the proportion of breast cancers due to BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations in Brazil, we conducted a study of unselected breast cancer patients from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. We enrolled 402 women with breast ...
