摘要:
Cases of breast cancer have been reported in transgender patients; however, because this occurrence is so rare, no evidence-based screening guidelines exist for this complicated patient population, and there are no formal recommendations for surgery selection in this population. We present the case of a 36-year-old female-to-male transgender patient with a strong family history of BRCA-negative premenopausal breast cancer. Because of the patient's high-risk status, the patient underwent bilateral total mastectomy with reconstruction to produce a male-appearing chest. Breast cancer risk assessment should be performed in all transgender patients; if the patient desires top surgery, a full risk assessment is essential in selecting appropriate surgical intervention. Postsurgical surveillance should be performed, as appropriate, given risk factors and choice of surgery. Given the dearth of large population series and the small number of cases of cancer in the transgender population, a registry should be produced among providers of care to the transgender population to allow evidence-based guidelines to be formulated.
