A family history of breast cancer has long been recognised as a significant risk factor for breast cancer. Quantifying that risk has been approached in publications and practically in a number of different ways. Increasingly regional genetics departments are called upon to help clarify guidelines for referral of women with a family history of breast cancer for genetic testing and to clarify breast cancer risk for women seeking early mammographic screening. This paper represents the current consensus guidelines fi om the UK Cancer Family Study Group and discusses some of the difficulties surrounding genetic risk estimation.
