Cytology of myoepithelial carcinoma of the salivary gland.

abstract：BACKGROUND:BRCA2 gene, located at chromosome 13q12.3, frequently is altered in familial types of cancer in which a "double-hit" inactivation model seems to occur. In contrast, in sporadic forms of cancer there is frequent absence of a second event (point mutations) suggesting that allelic imbalance at the BRCA2 locus m...
