Abstract
Mutations of the BRCA1/2 genes constitute a fundamental and independent risk factor in the genesis of both breast cancer and ovarian cancer. The specifics of the infertility treatment effect on the risk of developing cancer in carriers of mutations in the BRCA1/2 genes remain unclear and require a comprehensive investigation. In this review, we analyzed published sources on the possible relationship between the infertility treatment and the risk of ovarian and breast cancer in BRCA1/2 mutation carriers.
