NOTE. Local-regional failure included ipsilateral, new primary tumors. Analysis of local-regional failure and analysis of metastatic failure excluded women who presented with distant disease at or within 14 days of initial diagnoses. Analysis of metachronous contralateral disease excluded women who had synchronous bilateral disease at BC diagnosis or prophylactic contralateral mastectomy.

Abbreviations: BC, breast cancer; HL, Hodgkin's lymphoma; HR, hazard ratio; NS, not statistically significant.

*

HRs were adjusted for BC stage at diagnosis, axillary lymph node involvement, laterality at diagnosis, type of surgery, surgical margin status, menopausal status, family history of BC in a first-degree relative, whether BC was screen detected, receipt of radiation therapy for BC, receipt of chemotherapy for BC, and receipt of hormonal therapy for BC.
