A recent study showed that the risk of developing breast cancer over the 5 years after bariatric surgery is decreased by 80%.
Nicolas Christou at McGill University in Montreal, Quebec, Canada compared a group of bariatric surgery patients with a group of people of similar weight over a 5 year period of time.
Only 2% of those who chose bariatric surgery developed breast cancer over the subsequent 5 years compared to 8.5% of people of similar size that did not have bariatric surgery.
This is the first study that clearly shows the risk of developing breast cancer is decreased by 80% over the next 5 years after bariatric surgery.
Baraitric surgery could be the most important choice some women make.
