A pathogenic germline BRCA2 variant in a patient with hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma.

Tatiana Correa1, Douglas E Laux2, Henry T Hoffman1.   

Abstract

Pathogenic germline BRCA2 variants may be associated with an increased risk of hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma that is more responsive to chemoradiation and chemotherapeutics targeting defective double-strand DNA repair.
