Abstract

Methods: The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) cancer database was queried to identify CBC patients from 1998 to 2010.

Results: Of 1,534 patients, 31% underwent lumpectomy and 69% underwent mastectomy [201 (21%) mastectomy/reconstruction; 748 (69%) mastectomy alone]. Older patients (age >80 years) were more likely to undergo lumpectomy; those with larger tumors (T4) or node-positive disease more often underwent mastectomy. Overall survival was significantly higher in the mastectomy/reconstruction group (P =.05)

Conclusions: Younger age, larger tumor size, and positive nodal disease were independently associated with mastectomy. As the number of long-term breast cancer survivors increases, factors contributing to CBC treatments must be studied to maximize survival potential.

Background The treatment for a contralateral breast cancer (CBC) presents a growing dilemma given the expanding number of long-term survivors.
