Abstract
The purpose of this chapter will be to discuss the role of prophylactic oophorectomy and prophylactic mastectomy in the management of patients with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome. The approach described here can serve as a template in reviewing the efficacy of prophylactic surgery for other hereditary cancer syndromes.
