In 2023, the total number of mastectomies performed in Denmark was 2.33 thousand procedures. Forecast data from 2024 to 2028 indicates a gradual decline in the number of procedures from 2.3 thousand in 2024 to 2.19 thousand in 2028. Year-on-year variations show a consistent slight decrease: -1.3% from 2024 to 2025, -1.33% from 2025 to 2026, -0.89% from 2026 to 2027, and -1.35% from 2027 to 2028. The five-year CAGR is -1.3%, reflecting a small, steady annual decrease.
Future trends to watch for include advancements in breast cancer prevention and treatment, which might further reduce the need for mastectomies, and improvements in surgical techniques and patient care that might influence these numbers.
