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.
