The forecast for total mastectomies performed per hundred thousand women in Germany indicates a gradual decline from 2024 to 2028. Starting at a value of 64.0 units in 2024, the forecast shows a steady reduction each year, reaching 63.1 in 2028, representing a slight decrease of less than 1% annually. This implies a modest downward trend in mastectomy cases over this period.
Future trends to watch include advancements in preventive care and breast cancer detection technology, which could further decrease the necessity for mastectomies. Additionally, shifts in healthcare policy and patient preference towards breast-conserving treatments may influence this trend.
