1. Breast cancer develops from mutations in genes controlling cell growth and health. Abnormal cells divide uncontrollably, forming tumors that can be benign or malignant.
2. Malignant tumors are cancerous and can spread via the lymphatic system to other parts of the body. Breast cancer refers specifically to malignant tumors in the breast.
3. Treatment plans consider cancer type, stage, hormone sensitivity, and patient history. Early detection through education and screening as well as primary and adjuvant therapies can help improve outcomes for breast cancer.
This document provides an overview of breast cancer, including risk factors, signs and symptoms, causes, diagnosis, treatment options and prevention strategies. It notes that breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in women. While the chances of developing breast cancer increase with age, early detection through screening and awareness of changes to the breasts can help lead to successful treatment if cancer is found early. A variety of treatment options exist depending on the type and stage of cancer diagnosed. Lifestyle factors may also impact risk.
Breast cancer is the second leading cause of death and second most common cancer in women. It occurs when abnormal cells in the breast grow in an uncontrolled way and form tumors. The breasts contain lobes and lobules which produce milk, connected by ducts. The two main types are ductal carcinoma, originating in the ducts, and lobular carcinoma, originating in the lobules. Risk factors include gender, age, family history, obesity, lack of exercise, alcohol consumption, and hormone therapy. Screening methods include breast self-exams, clinical exams by a doctor, and mammography. Treatment options depend on cancer stage and may involve surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, and hormone therapy. With early detection and treatment, the
The document provides information about breast cancer symptoms and screening. Some key points include:
- Breast cancer often shows no symptoms, but sometimes a woman may find a lump herself. Other potential signs include breast changes, swelling in the armpit, or nipple discharge.
- Inflammatory breast cancer is a rare, fast-growing type that causes skin changes like thickening or an orange peel-like appearance.
- Mammograms can detect tumors before they are large enough to feel and are recommended yearly starting at age 40 to screen for breast cancer. Earlier detection leads to easier treatment.
- Assessing risk factors and discussing screening recommendations with a doctor helps determine the best individual screening schedule.
