ABSTRACT
The occurrence of 20 to 25 percent of ovarian cancer is associated with genetic factors.Hereditary ovarian cancer includes genetic ovarian cancer and familial ovarian cancer.The genetic characteristics of tumors and the development of gene testing technology make it possible to detect tumor-related mutational genes by testing the gene of the proband and thus identify the other family members at risk and intervene early so as to realize early prevention and detection of the cancer.The paper reviews the genetic basis and pathogenesis of hereditary ovarian cancer as well as methods of detecting mutational genes, management of the proband, problems at present, and disease prevention for high-risk individuals.It stresses that we should pay attention to hereditary ovarian cancer in clinical work, identify the proband, and make comprehensive evaluation of risks of the patients` relatives so as to provide individualized guidance and carry out the concept of precision medicine.
