Despite the uncertainty in the management of women gene carriers, consensus guidelines were defined to assist practitioners', and patients' decisions about the health care decisions to be made.</p><p><strong>Methodology: </strong>The Ad Hoc Committee consisted of 14 experts designated by the French National Institute for Health and Medical Research. They all attended eleven workshops at which a systematic analytical review of more than 3500 articles was carried out. Five additional experts critically analysed the first version of the report. CRITERIA AND DECISION PROCESS: Two thresholds were defined on a probability scale giving the risk of developing breast or ovarian cancer, to serve as a means of deciding as whether an intervention is worthwhile. The first threshold is that above which an intervention can be envisaged or recommended; the second is that under which an intervention can be ruled out; between the two, the decision has to be made on a each by case basis. STRATEGIES ANALYZED: About breast cancer: 1) hormonal interventions; 2) primary prevention (diet, family planning and chemoprevention); 3) screening (breast self-examination, clinician breast examination, tumor markers, imaging); 4) prophylactic mastectomy. About ovarian cancer: 1) hormonal stimulation; 2) screening (clinical screening, ultrasound and tumor markers); 3) prophylactic oophorectomy.</p><p><strong>Main conclusions: </strong>With each strategy the following points were dealt with; the information to be delivered to the Consultant, the procedure and the indications. In addition, the Committee's opinion about BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation screening is that population-based or even large scale implementation are not justified.
