BackgroundIndividuals with germline BRCA1 and BRCA2 pathogenic variants (BRCA carriers) are at high risk of developing high grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSC). HGSC is predominantly driven by TP53 mutations, but mutations in this gene ar…

Current screening methods for ovarian cancer (OC) have failed to demonstrate a significant reduction in mortality. Uterine lavage combined with TP53 ultra-deep sequencing for the detection of disseminated OC cells has emerged as a promising…

Recently, ovarian cancer research has evolved considerably because of the emerging recognition that rather than a single disease, ovarian carcinomas comprise several different histotypes that vary by etiologic origin, risk factors, molecula…

Intraepithelial fallopian tube neoplasia is thought to be a precursor lesion to high-grade serous carcinoma of the Müllerian adnexae, particularly in women with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations. This association has led to recommendations to assess…

BackgroundBRCA1 or BRCA2 (BRCA1/2)-mutated ovarian carcinomas may originate in the fallopian tube. The authors of this report investigated alterations in BRCA1/2 tubal epithelium to define the molecular pathogenesis of these carcinomas.Meth…
