Managing Breast Cancer Risk In High Risk Women

Rodrigo Arrangoiz MS, MD, FACS, FSSO

Per NCCN guidelines, women with a genetic predisposition to breast cancer should be familiar with their breasts and report any changes to their health care provider.

This breast awareness can include periodic, consistent breast self-examination and should begin at age 18.

Clinical breast examinations by a health care provider should be done every 6 to 12 months starting at age 20 to 25 years or 5 to 10 years before the earliest known breast cancer in the family (whichever comes first).

Enhanced surveillance includes breast imaging starting between ages 20 and 29 years in Li-Fraumeni syndrome, between 25 and 29 years in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome, and between 30 and 35 years in Cowden syndrome, or 5 to 10 years before the earliest known breast cancer in the family (whichever comes first).

Mammography and breast MRI are usually obtained yearly at 6-month intervals.

Annual mammography is generally not recommended before age 30 because of evidence that exposure to diagnostic radiation before age 30 is associated with an increased breast cancer risk.
