Abstract
Epidemiological evidence points to an increased risk of breast cancer in ataxia telangiectasia (AT) heterozygote women. Previous attempts to screen early onset or familial breast cancer patients failed to confirm an association. The issue of AT and late onset sporadic breast cancer remained unresolved. We screened 47 women who developed later onset, sporadic breast cancer for ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) mutations. No mutations were found.Entities:
