Abstract
- BRCA1 functions as a tumor suppressor gene and germline and somatic mutations in this gene have been shown to be associated with many types of cancer. We report the first tumor study of renal cell carcinoma in a carrier of the deleterious BRCA1 mutation-c.68&#95;69delAG.<br />Competing Interests: We have no potential conflicts of interest relevant to this letter.
