Multigene panel testing for hereditary cancer includes genes identified as hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer (HBOC) genes despite limited data regarding the precise cancer risks associated with mutations in these genes. Here we report on risks of breast cancer and separately risks of triple negative breast cancer associated with mutations in 20 predisposition genes.
