ABSTRACT: Background
Primary breast lymphoma (PBL) has gained attention with the description of breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL). Less is known about PBL incidence, treatment, and survival by lymphoma subtype.Methods
The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) registry database was queried for patients with PBL as first malignancy, with attention to non-Hodgkin Lymphoma PBL subtypes: diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), follicular lymphoma, marginal zone lymphoma (MZL), and ALCL. Incidence was estimated by age and subtype with joinpoint analyses, along with initial local therapy. Five-year relative and overall survival estimates were compared using z and two-sided log-rank tests.Results
PBL incidence (per 1 000 000 women) increased from 0.66 (1975-1977) to 2.96 (2011-2013) with an annual percentage change (APC) of 5.3% (95% confidence interval [CI] = 3.8% to 6.9%, P?ConclusionsPBL has increased in incidence over the last four decades and continues to increase for younger women and for some subtypes. The rise in imaging and procedures to the breast might enhance diagnostic sensitivity for PBL. Further study of the etiologies of PBL is needed.
