Postmastectomy implant-based breast reconstruction is associated with an increased risk of both B-cell and T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas, though the absolute risk remains very low. doi.org/g9w5k9
Implant-based reconstruction linked to increased risk of breast lymphomas
Columbia University investigators report an increased risk of breast lymphomas after postmastectomy implant-based reconstruction, including anaplastic large-cell lymphoma and several B-cell and T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma histologies.

📰 New in NEJM: Long-term results from the #SUPREMOtrial (BIG 2-04) show when postmastectomy radiotherapy may be safely avoided in “intermediate-risk” #breastcancer patients. A major step toward more tailored, less toxic treatment. www.nejm.org/doi/full/10....

🚨New in #Oncology!

Phase 3 Trial Results:

📊 Omitting postmastectomy chest-wall irradiation in intermediate-risk breast cancer patients showed no significant difference in 10-year OS, compared to those who received radiation.

💡 Findings shed new light on treatment de-escalation after mastectomy.

Postmastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) impairs the outcome of immediate breast reconstruction in patients with breast cancer, and the sentinel lymph node (SLN) status is crucial in evaluating the need for PMRT.

Previous work has described an increase in anaplastic large-cell lymphomas in association with breast implants. Adverse events resulted in a black-box warning by the US Food and Drug Administration on all breast implants.
