Objective:
To quantify the population-risk of developing gastric cancer (GC) following breast cancer (BC).
Methods:
GC incidence following a ductal or lobular BC were separately compared to incidence in the general United States population using SEER data.
Results:
GC rates were similar to the general population for ductal BC. Women aged 35-75 with lobular BC had a significantly higher incidence of GC; women aged 40-44 had the highest risk.
Conclusion:
The risk of secondary GC is high among young women diagnosed with lobular BC. More studies investigating the etiology and prevalence of familial GC syndromes at the population-level are needed.
