In the majority of breast cancer families, DNA testing does not show BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations and the genetic cause of breast cancer remains unexplained. Routine testing for the CHEK2∗1100delC mutation has recently been introduced in breast cancer families in the Netherlands. The 1100delC mutation in the CHEK2gene may explain the occurrence of breast cancer in about 5% of nonBRCA1/ 2 families in the Netherlands. In the general population the CHEK2∗1100delC mutation confers a slightly increased breast cancer risk, but in a familial breast cancer setting this risk is between 3555% for first degree female carriers. Female breast cancer patients with the CHEK2∗1100delC mutation are at increased risk of contralateral breast cancer and may have a...
