The forecast for total mastectomies performed in Italy shows a steady increase from 22.91 thousand inpatient cases in 2024 to 23.58 thousand in 2028, indicating a Year-on-Year (YoY) growth of approximately 0.7% to 0.8% annually. This upward trend likely reflects advances in early detection and treatment options that influence surgical decisions. Compared to 2023, when total mastectomies were at 22.75 thousand, this forecast suggests a gradual rise. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the next five years is modest, demonstrating consistent healthcare needs in addressing breast cancer treatments.
Future trends to monitor include technological advancements in mastectomy procedures, shifts in medical guidelines, and the impact of non-surgical alternatives. Additionally, changes in public health policies and awareness programs might influence the demand for surgeries.
