Breast cancer and bariatric surgery: temporal relationships of diagnosis, treatment, and reconstruction

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery
Jeffrey A GusenoffHoward N Langstein

Abstract

Given the increased prevalence of bariatric surgery, a certain number of women will develop breast cancer before or after bariatric intervention. Whether bariatric surgery reduces the risk of breast cancer remains uncertain. Similarly, reconstructive options for these patients and timing of reconstruction relative to their weight loss have not been established. Patients who underwent bariatric procedures from 1992 to 2007 and were diagnosed with breast cancer from 1988 to 2007 were assessed. Outcome measures included age, body mass indices, timing of cancer diagnosis, type of bariatric procedure, treatment and reconstructive modalities, postoperative complications, and comorbidities. A total of 2878 women underwent bariatric procedures and 112,085 women had breast cancer diagnoses. Thirty-six women had breast cancer diagnosed before (group I) and 13 after bariatric surgery (group II) (p < 0.001). Group I had a mean age of 49.4 years and mean body mass index of 56.3. One woman underwent unilateral autologous/implant reconstruction followed by bariatric surgery and subsequently required revision. Three women in group II (mean age at diagnosis, 48.3 years; mean pre-weight loss body mass index, 53.5; mean body mass index at diagnos...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
