CHEK2 mutation present (n = 34) | CHEK2 mutation absent (n = 102) | RR | 95% CI | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Relative risks (RR) (univariate) and 95% CI are shown. | ||||
*One patient (without the CHEK2 mutation) had a local recurrence in addition to contralateral breast cancer. Two other patients (one patient with the CHEK2 mutation) had a later diagnosis of distant metastasis. | ||||
†Including one case with ipsilateral second breast cancer. | ||||
‡Other malignancies were: adenocarcinoma of the colon and chondrosarcoma grade I (in patients with the CHEK2 mutation); and fibrous meningioma (in a patient without the CHEK2 mutation). Both patients with a CHEK2 mutation also had a contralateral breast cancer while the patient with the chondrosarcoma was later diagnosed with metastatic disease. | ||||
§All deaths were related to breast cancer and preceded by distant metastasis. | ||||
¶Two of these were synchrone breast cancers (contralateral breast cancer within 1 week). | ||||
