About The Study: In this economic evaluation, undergoing risk-reducing mastectomy (RRM) appears cost-effective for women ages 30 to 55 with a lifetime breast cancer risk of 35% or higher. These results could have significant clinical implications to expand access to RRM beyond BRCA1/BRCA2/PALB2 pathogenic variant carriers. Future studies evaluating the acceptability, uptake, and long-term outcomes of RRM among these women are warranted.
