Myriad Genetics, Inc.’s (Salt Lake City, UT, USA) companion diagnostics service is almost exclusively used for genetic testing. The aim of this study was to compare the results of germline BRCA mutation tests returned by a local laboratory and those performed by Myriad. Between April 2014 and February 2018, 31 patients with gBRCA 1/2 mutation test results from both Samsung Medical Center (Seoul, Korea) and Myriad were enrolled. “Discordant: Opposite classification” was observed for only one among 27 (3.7%). Citation: Hong, J.; Lee, J.; Kwon, M.; This discrepancy was due to the detection of a deleterious large genomic rearrangement of BRCA 1 Kim, J.-Y.; Kim, J.-W.; Ahn, J.S.; Im, by Myriad.
