[Title] => Prophylactic oophorectomy cuts Ca risk 75% in BRCA mutation carriers
[Summary] => Women at increased risk for breast and ovarian cancer due to BRCA1 and BRCA2 gene mutations can decrease that risk by 75 percent through prophylactic oophorectomy, according to results of the first prospective follow-up study to evaluate the effects of the procedure. Previous case-control studies have suggested that risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy is associated with a decreased incidence of both breast and ovarian cancer in BRCA mutation carriers, but this is the first prospective series to do so.
