We aimed to assess differences in breast cancer risk across
benign breast disease diagnosed at prevalent or incident screens.
Highlights
•Breast cancer risk after a benign breast disease varied
with the screening type.
•Incident benign breast disease had a higher breast cancer
risk than prevalent.
•The risk remained increased regardless of benign breast
disease subtype.
