摘要: Breast cancer in men is rare and clearly due some cases to an inherited predisposition. A total of 28 male breast patients were tested for BRCA2 mutations; two frameshifts one putative missense mutation identified. One the was detected same position as a estimated be responsible 40% all Iceland.
