Predictors that Influence Election of Contralateral Prophylactic Mastectomy among Women with Ductal Carcinoma in Situ who are BRCA-Negative
نویسندگان
چکیده
The authors retrospectively examined the contralateral prophylactic mastectomy (CPM) rate among 100 women with ductal carcinoma in situ who are BRCA negative. Of 100 women with ductal carcinoma in situ, 31 elected contralateral prophylactic mastectomy (CPM). Factors associated with increased likelihood of undergoing contralateral prophylactic mastectomy (CPM) among this cohort were: family history of ovarian cancer, marital status, reconstruction, mastectomy of the affected breast, and tamoxifen use.

Women who are diagnosed with breast cancer have a significant risk of developing contralateral breast cancer during the rest of their lives and this risk is closely associated to the family history, to the onset of breast cancer at a young age and is expressed at about 0.5 to 1% of metachronous tumors per year. Th...

متن کاملPrevalence of BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations in women diagnosed with ductal carcinoma in situ.
1512 Background: The frequency of a BRCA mutation among women with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) has not been well described. Consequently, patients with DCIS were not historically considered ideal candidates for genetic testing even in the presence of a family history of breast and ovarian cancer. Therefore, we examined the prevalence of BRCA1/2 mutations in women diagnosed with DCIS. METH...
