Bilateral breast cancer has a cumulative incidence of 3-13% in patients with primary breast cancer, and the majority of these lesions are metachronous. The synchronous and metachronous bilateral breast cancer have at greater risk for distant metastasis than unilateral breast cancer. There was no difference in overall survival when comparing metachronous and synchronous bilateral patients to those with unilateral disease.

Abstract
Bilateral breast cancer has a cumulative incidence of 3-13% in patients with primary breast cancer, and the majority of these lesions are metachronous. The synchronous and metachronous bilateral breast cancer have at greater risk for distant metastasis than unilateral breast cancer. There was no difference in overall survival when comparing metachronous and synchronous bilateral patients to those with unilateral disease.File in questo prodotto:
