Risk-reducing surgeries tied to improved outcomes in BRCA carriers with young-onset BC
A large global study provides evidence that risk-reducing mastectomy (RRM) and/or risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy (RRSO) is associated with improved survival outcomes in young women diagnosed with breast cancer (BC) at or before 40 years of age who were harbouring germline BRCA1 and/or BRCA2 pathogenic variants (PVs).
