HELP Medical research has uncovered a mutated gene, BRCA1 and BRCA2, that can be passed down in families and causes 10 percent of breast cancer cases. Those who have this gene have an 87 percent chance of getting breast cancer and a 50 percent chance of getting ovarian cancer. Some who have the gene have made the decision to go ahead and have a mastectomy before cancer gets a chance to present itself. One famous case is actress Angelina Jolie, who had a double mastectomy because she carried the BRCA1 gene. Do some research to see if this is the only option for those who carry the BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene. What would be the side effects of this treatment? Then discuss your opinion: Is opting for this treatment a wise course or not?
