The total mastectomy procedures performed on in-patients in France are forecasted to decline steadily from 17.45 thousand in 2024 to 15.57 thousand by 2028, reflecting a negative trend. The year-on-year percentage decrease for each subsequent year indicates that the demand for this procedure is anticipated to reduce by approximately 2.8% each year on average over the five-year span. The actual figures for 2023 are not provided here, so the analysis starts from forecasted values in 2024.
Future trends to watch for include advancements in breast cancer treatments that might reduce the need for mastectomies, increased emphasis on preventive measures, and the expansion of non-surgical treatment options. Additionally, trends in healthcare policy and patient preferences could further influence the demand for surgical interventions like mastectomy.
