Abstract

Several evidences point to the influence of genetics in the development of diseases. Chromosoma l changes, deletions and changes in gene expression. Actively participate in the pathophysiology of diseases and guide clinical management and treatment. The detection of genetic changes and their association with phenotypic characteristics favor a new perspective of treatment and diagnosis for gynecological diseases related to breast tumors. This câncer is known for its genetic, molecular and histopathological complexity, which presentes variable clinical courses. Recent articles discuss which syndromes are associated with hereditary breast cancer, molecular classification, diagnosis, which are the molecular prognostic tools for detection, clinical management and treatment for breast tumors. Thus, the article aims to address the factors related to genetic, diagnosis and prognostic tools for breast cancer in Brazil.
