And that concern leads to a phenomenon that has been observed in the United States for a few years now: an increase in the number of voluntary bilateral mastectomies, a procedure in which the patient elects to have both breasts removed to eliminate future risk and provide peace of mind. Sometimes these patients have a strong family history of breast cancer. Sometimes the cancer is confined to one breast. Sometimes the patient has undergone breast cancer treatment successfully. Sometimes it’s a combination of factors. For example, Applegate announced in an Associated Press article Tuesday that she had a bilateral mastectomy though both her breasts were cancer-free after treatments. Discovering she had a genetic predisposition for breast and ovarian cancer played a major role in her decision, she said.
