Abstract

Breast cancer is one of the most extensively studied cancers and its genetic basis is well established. Dermatoglyphic traits are formed under genetic control and represent the genetic makeup of an individual and therefore his/her predisposition to certain diseases like Down’s syndrome and Kleinfelter syndrome. The prints can thus represent a non- nvasive anatomical marker of breast cancer risk and thus facilitate early detection and treatment.
