Concurrent risk-reduction surgery in patients with increased lifetime risk for breast and ovarian cancer: An analysis of the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) database

Breast Cancer Research and Treatment Jul 20, 2018

Elmi M, et al. - In this retrospective cohort analysis, researchers compared postoperative morbidity between patients undergoing risk-reduction mastectomy (RRM) alone vs patients undergoing RRM with concurrent bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (BSO) by using the American College of Surgeon’s National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) 2007–2016 datasets.
