Angelina Jolie undergoes double mastectomy to reduce breast cancer risk


Angelina Jolie has revealed that she recently underwent a preventative double
mastectomy.
The actress, whose mother, Marcheline Bertrand, died of ovarian cancer in
2007, was tested to see whether she carried the 'faulty' gene that increases
a woman's risk of developing breast and ovarian cancer.
"My doctors estimated that I had an 87 per cent risk of breast cancer and a
50 per cent risk of ovarian cancer, although the risk is different in the
case of each woman," she said in a op-ed piece published in The New York
Times.
In response to this increased risk, she made the decision to have both
breasts removed, with treatment beginning in February.

The procedures, which took nearly three months and finished on April 27,
remained secret until Jolie chose to go public by penning a first-person
piece on her decision for the Times.
"I am writing about it now because I hope that other women can benefit from
my experience," Ms Jolie, who is 37, wrote.
"Cancer is still a word that strikes fear into people’s hearts, producing a
deep sense of powerlessness. But today it is possible to find out through a
blood test whether you are highly susceptible to breast and ovarian cancer,
and then take action."
Ms Jolie has since had a breast reconstruction and said despite it being a
difficult process she was pleased she had gone through with it.
"The decision to have a mastectomy was not easy. But it is one I am very
happy that I made. My chances of developing breast cancer have dropped from
87 percent to under 5 percent. I can tell my children that they don’t need
to fear they will lose me to breast cancer."
