“…(2018) study, the number of people in BI-RADS B and C were counted together. We processed the data by dividing the population of B+C equally between B and C. In Mokhtari et al. (2017) study, the left and right breast density grades were calculated separately, and we divided them by 2 when conducting data analysis.…”

IntroductionBariatric surgery is one of the most effective methods for treating obesity. It can effectively reduce body weight and reduce the incidence of obesity-related breast cancer. However, there are different conclusions about how bariatric surgery changes breast density. The purpose of this study was to clarify the changes in breast density from before to after bariatric surgery.MethodsThe relevant literature was searched through PubMed and Embase to screen for studies. Meta-analysis was used to clarify the changes in breast density from before to after bariatric surgery.ResultsA total of seven studies were included in this systematic review and meta-analysis, including a total of 535 people. The average body mass index decreased from 45.3 kg/m2 before surgery to 34.4 kg/m2 after surgery. By the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System score, the proportion of grade A breast density from before to after bariatric surgery decreased by 3.83% (183 vs. 176), grade B (248 vs. 263) increased by 6.05%, grade C (94 vs. 89) decreased by 5.32%, and grade D (1 vs. 4) increased by 300%. There was no significant change in breast density from before to after bariatric surgery (OR=1.27, 95% confidence interval (CI) [0.74, 2.20], P=0.38). By the Volpara density grade score, postoperative volumetric breast density increased (standardized mean difference = -0.68, 95% CI [-1.08, -0.27], P = 0.001).DiscussionsBreast density increased significantly after bariatric surgery, but this depended on the method of detecting breast density. Further randomized controlled studies are needed to validate our conclusions.

“…Others have explored changes in BD following metabolic surgery with differing results. (15,16,27) Mokhtari et al retrospectively reported on mammographic outcomes by radiologist interpretation including BI-RADS for 10 patients with at least 50% excess weight loss following laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB), SG, and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). The authors noted an overall decrease in breast size along with higher postoperative BD at 8.7 months.…”

“…The authors noted an overall decrease in breast size along with higher postoperative BD at 8.7 months. (27) Vohra and colleagues studied mammograms by conventional radiologist’s interpretation and volumetric software for 80 patients before and 10.1 moths after metabolic surgery (LAGB, SG, and RYGB) resulting in a 12.3 kg/m 2 BMI reduction. (15) They reported no postoperative change in BI-RADS density categories while noticing an increase in volumetric BD by software analysis.…”

“…As mentioned previously, weight loss after bariatric surgery may aid in the earlier detection of breast cancer by selfexamination or mammography. In addition, lower radiation doses are reported to be needed for mammography after bariatric surgery [60].…”
