Article/Chapter Title: | Systemic therapy for BRCA-associated breast cancer |
Abstract: | Treatment of hereditary breast cancer, as that of all types of breast cancer, can be broadly divided into local and systemic phases. In a preceding chapter, the influence of germline predisposition on local management decisions, particularly the appropriateness of breast conserving treatment, is considered. In this chapter, we will consider the question of whether women with hereditary breast cancer should be approached differently when it comes to decision-making about systemic adjuvant therapy. © 2008 by Taylor & Francis Group, LLC. |
