"Actress Angelina Jolie, with actor Brad Pitt at the 84th Academy Awards in the Hollywood section of Los Angeles, said she has had a preventive double mastectomy after learning she carried a gene that made it extremely likely she would get breast cancer. The Oscar-winning actress and partner to Brad Pitt made the announcement in an op-ed she authored for Tuesday's New York Times under the headline, ""My Medical Choice."" She wrote between early February and late April she completed three months of surgical procedures to remove both breasts. (ASSOCIATED PRESS / Amy Sancetta, file)"
