## Abstract We used mathematical models to analyze the ageβincidence curve of breast carcinoma for individuals carrying a germline mutation in the BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene locus. Although many genomic abnormalities have been identified in breast tumors, we found that a twoβstage model fit the data well.

## Abstract The purpose of our study was to review the evidence for the efficacy of surveillance for early detection, bilateral prophylactic mastectomy, prophylactic oophorectomy and chemoprevention in preventing breast cancer and improving survival of __BRCA1__ or __BRCA2__ carriers. A critical re
Germline mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 account for majority of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. The complete coding sequence analysis of both genes was carried out in 197 breast/ovarian cancer patients from high-risk families and 53 patients with sporadic breast/ovarian cancer. In summary, 59 mu
