Abstract

The development of genetics in the study of predisposition to malignancies, to ovarian and breast cancers in particular, as well as the experi- ence of prophylactic surgery to reduce the risks of these diseases have permitted prophylactic bilateral tube ovariectomy to be used as a main technique in BRCA1 and BRCА2 gene mutation carriers. The purpose of this investigation is to demonstrate key studies in this area.
