Germline alterations in human DNA mismatch repair genes are associated with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC). Mutation analysis of the genes reveals carriers with a high risk of colorectal cancer, who will benefit from surveillance. We wanted to find the best predictive parameter of
To assess the value of estrogen receptor protein (ERP) as a predictor of tumor recurrence, 556 patients treated by mastectomy between 1973 and 1978 for primary operable breast cancer had ERP determination of their tumors. All patients had histologically negative nodes. Two hundred fifty-six patients
