Description
Summary:Purpose To evaluate whether previous ovarian removal concomitant with benign hysterectomy improves prognosis in a cohort of women with breast cancer. Methods In this nationwide register-based cohort study, risk of recurrence and mortality were examined in 4563 women with invasive breast cancer and previous bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (BSO) concomitant with benign hysterectomy, during 1977–2018. Comparing with benign hysterectomy alone, hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were evaluated by Cox-proportional hazards regression models. Analyses were stratified on age at hysterectomy as a proxy for menopausal status (
