Abstract

Background

Individuals with severe motor and intellectual disabilities have become an aging population, and high cancer morbidity and mortality are critical issues affecting their survival. Cancer screening is a crucial method of resolving this issue; however, a suitable screening method for them has not been established.

Methods

We used ultrasonography alone and performed breast cancer screening for women over 30 years old in our facility from 2016 to 2023. We observed the outcomes and calculated the recall/detection rate in this screening.

Results

Three cases among 379 tested positive in this screening, all of which underwent radical surgery. They are alive and well without relapse present. We detected these breast cancer cases with a low recall rate.

Conclusion

We were able to successfully detect breast cancer cases using ultrasonography alone. Ultrasonography is an effective and feasible tool for breast cancer screening in individuals with severe motor and intellectual disabilities.

超声波检查是对严重运动障碍和智力障碍者进行乳腺癌筛查的有效工具。

背景：严重运动障碍和智力障碍者已成为老龄化人口，癌症发病率和死亡率高是影响他们生存的关键问题。癌症筛查是解决这一问题的重要方法，但适合他们的筛查方法尚未确立：方法：从 2016 年到 2023 年，我们仅使用超声波检查，对本机构 30 岁以上的女性进行乳腺癌筛查。我们观察了此次筛查的结果，并计算了召回率/检出率：结果：在此次筛查中，379 例患者中有 3 例检测结果呈阳性，她们均接受了根治性手术。结果：在此次筛查的 379 例阳性病例中，有 3 例接受了根治性手术，她们都活得很好，没有复发。我们以较低的召回率发现了这些乳腺癌病例：结论：仅使用超声波检查，我们就能成功检测出乳腺癌病例。超声波检查是对严重运动障碍和智力障碍者进行乳腺癌筛查的有效可行的工具。
