Abstract
: Background: In 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 a pandemic, suspending screening programs, affecting timely detection of breast cancer worldwide, leading to an increase in cases in the post-pandemic period. Objective: To determine the proportion of BI-RADS 4 and 5 cases in mammograms performed after COVID-19 restrictions compared to those in 2019. Materials and methods: Observational, cross-sectional, and comparative study of patients with BI-RADS 4 or 5 mammograms after COVID-19 restrictions compared to those in 2019 at a family medicine unit. Results: Out of a total of 5 945 mammograms, 2 415 were performed in 2019 and 3 530 in 2022. In 2019, 69 were classified as BI-RADS > 4 (2.85%), and in 2022 this increased to 175 (4.95%) (p = 0.001). This increase was proportional for all age groups (p < 0.045). Conclusions: A 73% increase in mammograms classified as BI-RADS 4 or 5 was observed in the year following the pandemic, compared to the year before it.
