was performed. Patients with inadequate records were excluded. Results: 377 of 410 patients were included. 160 were BRCA 1, 194 BRCA 2 and 3 positive for both. 9 patients were PAL B2 and 5 carried CHECK 2, of which 3 also had a BRCA 1 mutation. 15 patients had other unidentified genes. 126 were in the affected group (33.42%) with 251 predicted carriers (66.57%). The median age at carrier diagnosis in the affected patients was 47 (range 22-74) compared to 42 (range 19-69) in the predictive group with 16/251 developing breast cancer subsequently (6.37%). 73/251 predictive patients had RRBS (29.08%), compared to 90/126 affected patients (71.43%). The remainder continued annual surveillance with expected or planned future RRBS or transferred to a local unit. Discussion: RRBS was higher in the affected group compared to asymptomatic carriers and reflect differing management considerations and patients own risk evaluation.
