Crumlin Hospital to review all versions of BRACA cancer-gene tests after suspected 'transcription error' in one case

Our Lady's Children's Hospital in Crumlin is to review all transcriptions of a cancer gene test after what it believes was a "transcription error" in one case.

The review was confirmed after it emerged that an adult patient was told she did not carry a specific gene that placed her at a higher risk of developing cancer, and later developed ovarian cancer.
