Selected medical interventions in women with a deleterious BRCA mutation: a population-based study in British Columbia.

Conclusions: Our results suggest reasonable uptake of risk-reducing interventions in high-risk women. To minimize the occurrence of breast and ovarian cancer in women with a BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation, more attention could be paid to ensuring that affected women receive proper counselling and follow-up.
