Abstract
PURPOSE: Although the incidence of breast cancer during pregnancy is increasing, little is known about short-term outcomes following breast cancer surgery during pregnancy. We aimed to compare the characteristics and outcomes of breast cancer surgery with and without pregnancy, and describe the obstetric outcomes following surgery. METHODS: The data of 249,257 female patients aged < 60 years who underwent breast cancer surgery between July 2010 and March 2020 were analyzed using a nationwide Japanese database; we generated a 1:10 matched-pair cohort (260 and 2597 patients with and without pregnancy, respectively) matched according to age and treatment year. We conducted multivariable analyses to compare surgical procedures and outcomes, adjusting for potential confounders in the matched-pair cohort. Additionally, we described the obstetric outcomes of patients with pregnancy. RESULTS: Patients with pregnancy were more likely to undergo total mastectomy [odds ratio: 1.48 (95% confidence interval: 1.13-1.94)] and axillary dissection [1.62 (1.17-2.24)], but less likely to undergo reconstruction [0.14 (0.07-0.31)], than patients without; however, postoperative complications, postoperative length of stay, and total hospitalization costs did not differ significantly with pregnancy. Additionally, some pregnant patients experienced premature delivery [n = 18 (6.9%)] and miscarriage [n = 4 (1.5%)], and 31 of 101 patients in the third trimester at breast cancer surgery underwent a cesarean section. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated significant differences regarding surgical procedures; however, there were no significant differences regarding surgical outcomes between patients who underwent breast cancer surgery with and without pregnancy. Obstetric outcomes following breast cancer surgery were also reported.
