Risks of Ovarian, Breast, and Corpus Uteri Cancer in Women Treated With Assisted Reproductive Technology in Great Britain, 1991-2010: Data Linkage Study Including 2.2 Million Person Years of Observation EDITORIAL COMMENT

摘要

Studies investigating the carcinogenic effects of these exposures are largely inconsistent.
