High throughput methods such as next generation sequencing are increasingly used in molecular diagnosis. The aim of this study was to develop a workflow for the detection ofBRCA1andBRCA2mutations using massive parallel sequencing in a 454 GS Junior bench top sequencer. Our approach was first validated in a panel of 23 patients containing 62 unique variants that had been previously Sanger sequenced. Subsequently, 101 patients with familial breast and ovarian cancer were studied.BRCA1andBRCA2exon enrichment has been performed by PCR amplification using the BRCA MASTR kit (Multiplicom). Bioinformatic analysis of reads is performed with the AVA software v2.7 (Roche). In total, all 62 variants were detected resulting in a sensitivity of 100%. 71 false positives were called resulting in a specificity of 97.35%. All of them correspond to deletions located in homopolymeric stretches. The analysis of the homopolymers stretches of 6 bp or longer using the BRCA HP kit (Multiplicom) increased the specificity of the detection ofBRCA1andBRCA2mutations to 99.99%. We show here that massive parallel pyrosequencing can be used as a diagnostic strategy to test forBRCA1andBRCA2mutations meeting very stringent sensitivity and specificity parameters replacing traditional Sanger sequencing with a lower cost.

PIPAC is a new technique for intra-abdominal administration of aerosol chemotherapy in a gaseous environment (capnoperitoneum). It can be indicated for peritoneal spread of various origins, most commonly ovarian cancer, stomach cancer and colorectal cancer. Due to its mini-invasiveness, the application can be repeated. The article provides a brief overview of current views of PIPAC and describes the first experience with PIPAC in the Czech Republic.
