A member asked:
What are the odds of having stage 2b invasive ductal carcinoma her2 positive breast cancer and papillary thyroid cancer at age 40?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Odds are low.: But it is still possible to have both. Risk of having papillary thyroid before forty is about 13/100,000. Risk of having breast Ca is about 11/100,000. The overlap of the two independent events is slightly less than 1 in a million.
