Breast cancer occurs when breast cells grow out of control, because these exquisite escape controls that regulate cell proliferation, cell proliferation without causing a response to regulation. Most cases of breast cancer have no identifiable cause, but about 5 to 10% are caused by inherited genetic mutations. Although other genes as the cause of hereditary breast cancer, known most studies evaluating clinical management strategies have focused on women with mutations in BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes. Individuals carrying mutations in these genes have a significantly increased risk throughout his life of suffering this disease, compared to the risk of the general population.

Keywords : Breast cancer; Heritable mutations; BRCAI gene.
