Familial breast cancer -any idea?
asked Dec 22, 2010 at 07:56PM in Women's Health

Approximately 10% of familial breast cancer may be related to known mutations, BRCA1/2 being the most common. However, there is some quite interesting work being done by Professor Beatriz Pogo of Mt. Sinai Medical Center in NYC regarding the human mammary tumor virus, thought to be responsible for at least 40% of all human breast cancer. For more information about this virus, you can view the documentary film, nominated Best Film Of The Year by Rethink Breast Cancer: breasthealthandhealing.orgKathleen T Ruddy MD commented Dec 23, 2010 at 12:03PM
