- Hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) resulting from mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 is the most common form of both hereditary breast and ovarian cancers and occurs in all ethnic and racial populations. The overall prevalence of BRCA1/2 mutations is estimated to be from 1:400 to 1:800 [Ford et al 1994, Claus et al 1996, Whittemore et al 1997], but varies depending on ethnicity. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK1247/
