No major medical organizations recommend routine ovarian cancer screening, but that hasn’t stopped doctors from regularly testing for the disease. According to a new study, primary care physicians and OB-GYNs regularly screen women at low-risk for ovarian cancer, exposing them to “substantial” potential harms.In the paper, published Monday in the Annals of Internal Medicine, researchers analyzed survey responses from doctors who were asked whether they would “almost always,” “sometimes” or “almost never” order — or offer — ovarian cancer screening during a woman’s annual exam. The researchers changed the hypothetical patient’s age, race and insurance, as well as her genetic and hereditary risk factors for ovarian cancer — a disease often called the “silent killer” because it goes undetected until it has spread.From a final pool of more than 1,000 physicians, some six percent of respondents said they routinely ordered or offered ovarian cancer screening for low-risk women, while nearly a quarter said they regularly offered it to medium-risk women.To put that in perspective the researchers estimate that, if applied nationally, approximately 1.2 million women in the U.S.

Susan M. Love: Breast Cancer Surgery — Ignorance of Anatomy, Not …
