| Core Tip |
Obesity is a well-established risk factor for breast cancer. Although bariatric surgery is an effective intervention for long-term weight management and metabolic improvement, its impact on breast cancer incidence remains unclear. Our systematic review and meta-analysis of 17 observational studies indicates that bariatric surgery is associated with an overall reduced risk of breast cancer in obese women. This protective effect was observed in both premenopausal and postmenopausal women, though it was more pronounced in the latter group. However, the observational design precludes establishing causality. An observed increased risk of stage I cancer requires cautious interpretation. These findings offer a new perspective on the potential role of bariatric surgery in reducing breast cancer risk. |
