El asesoramiento genético procura informar y guiar a las pacientes durante todo el proceso de identificación y diagnóstico de cáncer de mama hereditario. Por lo que con el presente artículo se pretende demostrar la relevancia del asesoramiento genético en el abordaje de las pacientes con cáncer de mama hereditario. Se realizó una revisión sistemática de la literatura para la selección de publicaciones científicas que aporten conocimiento sobre el cáncer de mama en relación con la herencia genética y otros documentos que demuestren la importancia del asesoramiento genético en pacientes con cáncer de mama hereditario. Con esta revisión, se obtuvo información valiosa sobre la importancia de la implementación del asesoramiento genético, durante la realización de pruebas genéticas, en pacientes con cáncer de mama hereditario.]]></p></abstract>

Genetic counseling seeks to inform and guide patients throughout the process of identification and diagnosis of hereditary breast cancer. Therefore, this article intends to demonstrate the relevance of genetic counseling in the approach of patients with hereditary breast cancer. It has been made a systematic review of the literature for the selection of scientific publications that provide knowledge about breast cancer in relation to genetic inheritance and other documents demonstrating the importance of genetic counseling in patients with hereditary breast cancer was performed.
