Value of genetic testing of herminal tumor mutations in screening and prevention of malignant formations

Abstract

The authors analyzed available data in modern literature on the role of genetic testing for mutations in genes responsible for predisposing to hereditary cancers of reproductive organs in women. They are looking at data on the importance of using genetic testing in clinical practice to predict the disease development, need for follow-up monitoring in the presence of mutation load, and determination of combined chemotherapy policy for malignant neoplasms.
