ABSTRACT
Background:
The use of contralateral prophylactic mastectomy (CPM) has increased over the last two decades with variations in the frequency of reconstruction. The objective of this cohort study is to elucidate the use of CPM and reconstruction among underrepresented racial and ethnic groups and women over 65 years.Methods:
Women over 18 years, diagnosed with stages I to III breast cancer who underwent mastectomy from 2004-2017 were identified in the National Cancer Database (NCDB) and grouped into CPM vs. non-CPM. Multivariable analyses were used to examine the associations between CPM and reconstruction with sociodemographic and clinical factors.Results:
A total of 571,649 patients were identified. Patients who underwent CPM were under 50 years (45.9%), White (88.4%) and with private insurance (73.5%). On multivariable analysis, women over 65 years [odds ratio (OR) 0.18, P<0.001], non-White (Black, OR 0.56, P<0.001) and without private insurance (uninsured, OR 0.50, P<0.001) had decreased odds of CPM. Women over 65 years (OR 0.11, P<0.001), non-White (Asian/Pacific Islander, OR 0.58, P<0.001) and without private insurance (Medicaid, OR 0.41, P<0.001) had decreased odds of reconstruction.Conclusions:
Non-White women and women over the age of 65 years were less likely to have CPM or reconstruction than their White counterparts from 2004 to 2017. Research is needed to understand factors impacting decision-making.
