Abstract
The risk of solid tumors, especially breast cancer, is high among women with HD disease who were treated with radiotherapy in their childhood. In this article, we propose a specific mathematical age formula which could be used as predictive equation when the age of the treatment for HD is in the range between 9 and 21 years. Systematic screening for breast cancer in these patients would be significantly important for their health and could improve their survival.
