Breast Diseases
Pathological processes of the BREAST.
Fibrocystic Breast Disease
A common and benign breast disease characterized by varying degree of fibrocystic changes in the breast tissue. There are three major patterns of morphological changes, including FIBROSIS, formation of CYSTS, and proliferation of glandular tissue (adenosis). The fibrocystic breast has a dense irregular, lumpy, bumpy consistency.
Breast
In humans, one of the paired regions in the anterior portion of the THORAX. The breasts consist of the MAMMARY GLANDS, the SKIN, the MUSCLES, the ADIPOSE TISSUE, and the CONNECTIVE TISSUES.
Fibroadenoma
An adenoma containing fibrous tissue. It should be differentiated from ADENOFIBROMA which is a tumor composed of connective tissue (fibroma) containing glandular (adeno-) structures. (From Dorland, 27th ed)
Breast Neoplasms
Tumors or cancer of the human BREAST.
Adenofibroma
A benign neoplasm composed of glandular and fibrous tissues, with a relatively large proportion of glands. (Stedman, 25th ed)
Carcinoma, Ductal, Breast
An invasive (infiltrating) CARCINOMA of the mammary ductal system (MAMMARY GLANDS) in the human BREAST.
Mammography
Radiographic examination of the breast.
Hyperplasia
An increase in the number of cells in a tissue or organ without tumor formation. It differs from HYPERTROPHY, which is an increase in bulk without an increase in the number of cells.
Carcinoma, Intraductal, Noninfiltrating
A noninvasive (noninfiltrating) carcinoma of the breast characterized by a proliferation of malignant epithelial cells confined to the mammary ducts or lobules, without light-microscopy evidence of invasion through the basement membrane into the surrounding stroma.
Breast Cyst
A fluid-filled closed cavity or sac that is lined by an EPITHELIUM and found in the BREAST. It may appear as a single large cyst in one breast, multifocal, or bilateral in FIBROCYSTIC BREAST DISEASE.
Nipples
The conic organs which usually give outlet to milk from the mammary glands.
Menopause
The last menstrual period. Permanent cessation of menses (MENSTRUATION) is usually defined after 6 to 12 months of AMENORRHEA in a woman over 45 years of age. In the United States, menopause generally occurs in women between 48 and 55 years of age.
Carcinoma in Situ
A lesion with cytological characteristics associated with invasive carcinoma but the tumor cells are confined to the epithelium of origin, without invasion of the basement membrane.
Precancerous Conditions
Pathological processes that tend eventually to become malignant. (From Dorland, 27th ed)
Carcinoma, Lobular
A infiltrating (invasive) breast cancer, relatively uncommon, accounting for only 5%-10% of breast tumors in most series. It is often an area of ill-defined thickening in the breast, in contrast to the dominant lump characteristic of ductal carcinoma. It is typically composed of small cells in a linear arrangement with a tendency to grow around ducts and lobules. There is likelihood of axillary nodal involvement with metastasis to meningeal and serosal surfaces. (DeVita Jr et al., Cancer: Principles & Practice of Oncology, 3d ed, p1205)
Risk Factors
An aspect of personal behavior or lifestyle, environmental exposure, or inborn or inherited characteristic, which, on the basis of epidemiologic evidence, is known to be associated with a health-related condition considered important to prevent.
Biopsy, Needle
Removal and examination of tissue obtained through a transdermal needle inserted into the specific region, organ, or tissue being analyzed.
Biopsy
Removal and pathologic examination of specimens in the form of small pieces of tissue from the living body.
Case-Control Studies
Studies which start with the identification of persons with a disease of interest and a control (comparison, referent) group without the disease. The relationship of an attribute to the disease is examined by comparing diseased and non-diseased persons with regard to the frequency or levels of the attribute in each group.
Receptors, Estrogen
Cytoplasmic proteins that bind estrogens and migrate to the nucleus where they regulate DNA transcription. Evaluation of the state of estrogen receptors in breast cancer patients has become clinically important.
Ultrasonography, Mammary
Use of ultrasound for imaging the breast. The most frequent application is the diagnosis of neoplasms of the female breast.
Breast Feeding
The nursing of an infant at the breast.
Palpation
Application of fingers with light pressure to the surface of the body to determine consistence of parts beneath in physical diagnosis; includes palpation for determining the outlines of organs.
Mastitis
INFLAMMATION of the BREAST, or MAMMARY GLAND.
Receptors, Progesterone
Specific proteins found in or on cells of progesterone target tissues that specifically combine with progesterone. The cytosol progesterone-receptor complex then associates with the nucleic acids to initiate protein synthesis. There are two kinds of progesterone receptors, A and B. Both are induced by estrogen and have short half-lives.
Mastectomy
Surgical procedure to remove one or both breasts.
Tumor Markers, Biological
Molecular products metabolized and secreted by neoplastic tissue and characterized biochemically in cells or body fluids. They are indicators of tumor stage and grade as well as useful for monitoring responses to treatment and predicting recurrence. Many chemical groups are represented including hormones, antigens, amino and nucleic acids, enzymes, polyamines, and specific cell membrane proteins and lipids.
Neoplasm Invasiveness
Ability of neoplasms to infiltrate and actively destroy surrounding tissue.
Age Factors
Age as a constituent element or influence contributing to the production of a result. It may be applicable to the cause or the effect of a circumstance. It is used with human or animal concepts but should be differentiated from AGING, a physiological process, and TIME FACTORS which refers only to the passage of time.
Risk
The probability that an event will occur. It encompasses a variety of measures of the probability of a generally unfavorable outcome.
Postmenopause
The physiological period following the MENOPAUSE, the permanent cessation of the menstrual life.
Estrogens
Compounds that interact with ESTROGEN RECEPTORS in target tissues to bring about the effects similar to those of ESTRADIOL. Estrogens stimulate the female reproductive organs, and the development of secondary female SEX CHARACTERISTICS. Estrogenic chemicals include natural, synthetic, steroidal, or non-steroidal compounds.
Parity
The number of offspring a female has borne. It is contrasted with GRAVIDITY, which refers to the number of pregnancies, regardless of outcome.
Prospective Studies
Observation of a population for a sufficient number of persons over a sufficient number of years to generate incidence or mortality rates subsequent to the selection of the study group.
Breast Neoplasms, Male
Any neoplasms of the male breast. These occur infrequently in males in developed countries, the incidence being about 1% of that in females.
Menstruation
The periodic shedding of the ENDOMETRIUM and associated menstrual bleeding in the MENSTRUAL CYCLE of humans and primates. Menstruation is due to the decline in circulating PROGESTERONE, and occurs at the late LUTEAL PHASE when LUTEOLYSIS of the CORPUS LUTEUM takes place.
Carcinoma
A malignant neoplasm made up of epithelial cells tending to infiltrate the surrounding tissues and give rise to metastases. It is a histological type of neoplasm but is often wrongly used as a synonym for "cancer." (From Dorland, 27th ed)
Premenopause
The period before MENOPAUSE. In premenopausal women, the climacteric transition from full sexual maturity to cessation of ovarian cycle takes place between the age of late thirty and early fifty.
Body Fluids
Liquid components of living organisms.
Prognosis
A prediction of the probable outcome of a disease based on a individual's condition and the usual course of the disease as seen in similar situations.
Menarche
The first MENSTRUAL CYCLE marked by the initiation of MENSTRUATION.
Immunohistochemistry
Histochemical localization of immunoreactive substances using labeled antibodies as reagents.
Neoplasm Metastasis
The transfer of a neoplasm from one organ or part of the body to another remote from the primary site.
Cohort Studies
Studies in which subsets of a defined population are identified. These groups may or may not be exposed to factors hypothesized to influence the probability of the occurrence of a particular disease or other outcome. Cohorts are defined populations which, as a whole, are followed in an attempt to determine distinguishing subgroup characteristics.
Estrogen Replacement Therapy
The use of hormonal agents with estrogen-like activity in postmenopausal or other estrogen-deficient women to alleviate effects of hormone deficiency, such as vasomotor symptoms, DYSPAREUNIA, and progressive development of OSTEOPOROSIS. This may also include the use of progestational agents in combination therapy.
Cell Line, Tumor
A cell line derived from cultured tumor cells.
Breast Implants
Implants used to reconstruct and/or cosmetically enhance the female breast. They have an outer shell or envelope of silicone elastomer and are filled with either saline or silicone gel. The outer shell may be either smooth or textured.
Odds Ratio
The ratio of two odds. The exposure-odds ratio for case control data is the ratio of the odds in favor of exposure among cases to the odds in favor of exposure among noncases. The disease-odds ratio for a cohort or cross section is the ratio of the odds in favor of disease among the exposed to the odds in favor of disease among the unexposed. The prevalence-odds ratio refers to an odds ratio derived cross-sectionally from studies of prevalent cases.
Cathepsin D
An intracellular proteinase found in a variety of tissue. It has specificity similar to but narrower than that of pepsin A. The enzyme is involved in catabolism of cartilage and connective tissue. EC 3.4.23.5. (Formerly EC 3.4.4.23).
Receptor, erbB-2
A cell surface protein-tyrosine kinase receptor that is overexpressed in a variety of ADENOCARCINOMAS. It has extensive homology to and heterodimerizes with the EGF RECEPTOR, the ERBB-3 RECEPTOR, and the ERBB-4 RECEPTOR. Activation of the erbB-2 receptor occurs through heterodimer formation with a ligand-bound erbB receptor family member.
Lymphatic Metastasis
Transfer of a neoplasm from its primary site to lymph nodes or to distant parts of the body by way of the lymphatic system.
Risk Assessment
The qualitative or quantitative estimation of the likelihood of adverse effects that may result from exposure to specified health hazards or from the absence of beneficial influences. (Last, Dictionary of Epidemiology, 1988)
Breast Self-Examination
The inspection of one's breasts, usually for signs of disease, especially neoplastic disease.
Proportional Hazards Models
Statistical models used in survival analysis that assert that the effect of the study factors on the hazard rate in the study population is multiplicative and does not change over time.
Neoplasm Staging
Methods which attempt to express in replicable terms the extent of the neoplasm in the patient.
Sensitivity and Specificity
Binary classification measures to assess test results. Sensitivity or recall rate is the proportion of true positives. Specificity is the probability of correctly determining the absence of a condition. (From Last, Dictionary of Epidemiology, 2d ed)
Neoplasm Proteins
Proteins whose abnormal expression (gain or loss) are associated with the development, growth, or progression of NEOPLASMS. Some neoplasm proteins are tumor antigens (ANTIGENS, NEOPLASM), i.e. they induce an immune reaction to their tumor. Many neoplasm proteins have been characterized and are used as tumor markers (BIOMARKERS, TUMOR) when they are detectable in cells and body fluids as monitors for the presence or growth of tumors. Abnormal expression of ONCOGENE PROTEINS is involved in neoplastic transformation, whereas the loss of expression of TUMOR SUPPRESSOR PROTEINS is involved with the loss of growth control and progression of the neoplasm.
Incidence
The number of new cases of a given disease during a given period in a specified population. It also is used for the rate at which new events occur in a defined population. It is differentiated from PREVALENCE, which refers to all cases, new or old, in the population at a given time.
Time Factors
Elements of limited time intervals, contributing to particular results or situations.
Tamoxifen
One of the SELECTIVE ESTROGEN RECEPTOR MODULATORS with tissue-specific activities. Tamoxifen acts as an anti-estrogen (inhibiting agent) in the mammary tissue, but as an estrogen (stimulating agent) in cholesterol metabolism, bone density, and cell proliferation in the ENDOMETRIUM.
Progestins
Compounds that interact with PROGESTERONE RECEPTORS in target tissues to bring about the effects similar to those of PROGESTERONE. Primary actions of progestins, including natural and synthetic steroids, are on the UTERUS and the MAMMARY GLAND in preparation for and in maintenance of PREGNANCY.
Mass Screening
Organized periodic procedures performed on large groups of people for the purpose of detecting disease.
Confidence Intervals
A range of values for a variable of interest, e.g., a rate, constructed so that this range has a specified probability of including the true value of the variable.
Outpatient Clinics, Hospital
Organized services in a hospital which provide medical care on an outpatient basis.
Follow-Up Studies
Studies in which individuals or populations are followed to assess the outcome of exposures, procedures, or effects of a characteristic, e.g., occurrence of disease.

Measurement of prostate-specific antigen in detection of benign or malignant breast disease in women. (1/757)

Using a highly sensitive chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay, we have evaluated the measurement of serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) as a potential diagnostic test for differentiation between women with breast cancer and those with benign breast disease. In a controlled study consisting of 284 women with well-documented patient files and matched for age and long-term place of residence, serum samples collected from 90 women with histologically confirmed breast cancer, 94 women with benign breast disease and 100 controls were analysed. Serum total PSA levels in benign breast disease and cancer patients are not statistically different from those of healthy controls. Total PSA levels decrease with age in normal controls and breast cancer patients but not in those with benign breast disease. The total PSA concentration decreases after menopause in healthy women, though not in patients with breast cancer or benign breast disease. Total PSA bore no relation to the histological type or grade of the tumour or the disease stage of the breast cancer patients. In benign breast disease, all mastopathy patients had normal total PSA, whereas elevation of the values was observed in 7% of fibroadenoma patients. Our results show that serum total PSA cannot be used to distinguish between healthy women and/or women with breast cancer or benign breast disease.  (+info)

Systemic multifocal fibrosclerosis. (2/757)

We describe a case of hydronephrosis as a result of retroperitoneal fibrosis in a patient who had previous sclerosing lobulitis of the breast. To the best of our knowledge this is the first reported association between these two conditions in the english literature. We presume these conditions are linked and unify them under the general heading of systemic multifocal fibrosclerosis.  (+info)

Screening for breast cancer: time, travel, and out-of-pocket expenses. (3/757)

BACKGROUND: We estimated the personal costs to women found to have a breast problem (either breast cancer or benign breast disease) in terms of time spent, miles traveled, and cash payments made for detection, diagnosis, initial treatment, and follow-up. METHODS: We analyzed data from personal interviews with 465 women from four communities in Florida. These women were randomly selected from those with a recent breast biopsy (within 6-8 months) that indicated either breast cancer (208 women) or benign breast disease (257 women). One community was the site of a multifaceted intervention to promote breast screening, and the other three communities were comparison sites for evaluation of that intervention. All P values are two-sided. RESULTS: In comparison with time spent and travel distance for women with benign breast disease (13 hours away from home and 56 miles traveled), time spent and travel distance were statistically significantly higher (P<.001) for treatment and follow-up of women with breast cancer (89 hours and 369 miles). Personal financial costs for treatment of women with breast cancer were also statistically significantly higher (breast cancer = $604; benign breast disease = $76; P < .001) but were statistically significantly lower for detection and diagnosis (breast cancer = $170; benign breast disease = $310; P < .001). Among women with breast cancer, time spent for treatment was statistically significantly lower (P = .013) when their breast cancer was detected by screening (68.9 hours) than when it was detected because of symptoms (84.2 hours). Personal cash payments for detection, diagnosis, and treatment were statistically significantly lower among women whose breast problems were detected by screening than among women whose breast problems were detected because of symptoms (screening detected = $453; symptom detected = $749; P = .045). CONCLUSION: There are substantial personal costs for women who are found to have a breast problem, whether the costs are associated with problems identified through screening or because of symptoms.  (+info)

Centrosomal kinase AIK1 is overexpressed in invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast. (4/757)

A centrosomal serine/threonine kinase, AIK1(3)/breast tumor amplified kinase/aurora2, which was recently identified as an oncogene, shows high amino acid identity with chromosome segregation kinases, fly Aurora, and yeast Ipl1. Immunohistochemical analyses of invasive ductal adenocarcinomas of the breast revealed that overexpression of AIK1 was observed in 94% of the cases, irrespective of the histopathological type, whereas the protein was not detected in normal ductal and lobular cells. Benign breast lesions including fibrocystic disease and fibroadenoma (epithelial components) displayed weakly detectable AIK1 expression in part of the lesions. This is the first immunohistochemical report of AIK1 expression in primary human breast carcinomas. Although the physiological function(s) of AIK1 kinase during cell division remains to be determined, the markedly high positivity of AIK1 staining in the cancer lesions suggested a possible involvement of its overexpression in the tumorigenesis of some of breast cancer cells.  (+info)

Comparison of mammographically guided breast biopsy techniques. (5/757)

OBJECTIVE: To determine which mammographically guided breast biopsy technique is the most efficient in making a diagnosis in women with suspicious mammograms. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: Mammographically guided biopsy techniques include stereotactic 14-gauge core-needle biopsy (SC bx), stereotactic 11-gauge suction-assisted core biopsy (Mammotome [Mbx]), stereotactic coring excisional biopsy (Advanced Breast Biopsy Instrument [ABBI]), and wire-localized biopsy (WL bx). Controversy exists over which technique is best. METHODS: All patients undergoing any one of these biopsy methods over a 15-month period were reviewed, totaling 245 SC bx, 107 Mbx, 104 ABBI, and 520 WL bx. Information obtained included technical success, pathology, discordant pathology, and need for open biopsy. RESULTS: Technical success was achieved in 94.3% of SC bx, 96.4% of Mbx, 92.5% of ABBI, and 98.7% of WL bx. The sensitivity and specificity were 87.5% and 98.6% for SC bx, 87.5% and 100% for Mbx, and 100% and 100% for ABBI. Discordant results or need for a repeat biopsy occurred in 25.7% of SC bx, 23.2% of Mbx, and 7.5% of ABBI biopsies. In 63.6% of ABBI and 50.9% of WL bx, positive margins required reexcision; of the cases with positive margins, 71.4% of ABBI and 70.4% of WL bx had residual tumor in the definitive treatment specimen. CONCLUSION: Although sensitivities and specificities of SC bx and Mbx are good, 20% to 25% of patients will require an open biopsy because a definitive diagnosis could not be reached. This does not occur with the ABBI excisional biopsy specimen. The positive margin rates and residual tumor rates are comparable between the ABBI and WL bx. The ABBI avoids operating room and reexcision costs; therefore, in appropriately selected patients, this appears to be the most efficient method of biopsy.  (+info)

In vitro estrogen-binding by human breast carcinomas. (6/757)

Patients whose breast carcinomas possess only low concentrations of a receptor molecule that binds estrogens with high affinity are unlikely to respond to hormonal manipulative therapy when the disease recurs. The estrogen-binding capacity of 106 breast carcinomas was measured by an in vitro method and was expressed per milligram wet weight and in some cases related to the concentration of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) of the tumours. The ability of tumors to bind 3H-estradiol ranged from 0 to 1.3 fm/mg in pre- and perenopausal women, and from 0 to 16.8 fm/mg in postmenopausal women. Menopausal status or serum concentrations of endogenous estrogen, or both, should therefore be considered when tumours are classified into low and high estrogen-binding capacity. It is not necessary to carry out Scatchard analysis for every tumour, and expressing estradiol binding on the basis of DNA concentration may be preferable to expressing in on a wet-weight basis.  (+info)

MammoWeb continuing medical education (CME): a web-based breast imaging CME program. (7/757)

The ubiquity of the world-wide web allows unique educational opportunities for continuing medical education (CME). We have designed a comprehensive breast imaging CME curriculum to permit individual physicians in their homes or offices to use personal computers to ease the burden of this process. Category 1 CME credits can be earned off-hours without having the physician travel out of town. In addition, since the course is computer-based, the overall costs to the participant are substantially reduced. The program can be updated on an ongoing basis to include new technology or to provide additional information requested by the users.  (+info)

Identification of women with early breast cancer by analysis of p43-positive lymphocytes. (8/757)

Regular screening mammographies and increasing knowledge of high-risk groups have resulted in an improvement in the rate of detection of smaller malignant lesions. However, uncertain minimal mammographic features frequently require further costly and often uncomfortable investigation, including repeat radiological controls or surgical procedures, before cancerous lesions can be identified. Placental isoferritin (p43), a protein with immunosuppressive effects, has been detected on the surface of lymphocytes taken from peripheral blood in patients with breast cancer. In this study we evaluated the sensitivity and specificity of the expression of p43-positive lymphocytes as a marker in early stage breast cancer and also investigated its expression on T-cell subpopulations. The presence of p43-positive lymphocytes was investigated using the monoclonal antibody CM-H-9 and flow cytometry in 76 women with controversial, non-palpable mammographic findings who were undergoing surgical biopsy. Patients with early breast cancer (n = 48) had significantly higher p43-positive cell values (median 3.83%, range 0.98-19.4) than patients with benign lumps (n = 28, median 1.43%, range 0.17-3.7) or controls (n = 22, median 1.3%, range 0.4-1.87) (P < 0.0001). At a cut-off level of 2% p43-positive cells a sensitivity of 91.7% and a specificity of 89.3% for detection of breast cancer could be reached. While the median ratio of total CD4+/CD8+ cells was 2.6, a ratio of 1.3 was found for the p43-positive subpopulation (P < 0.001), thus indicating a significant link between p43 and CD8+ cells. The determination of p43-positive lymphocytes in peripheral blood could serve as an additional diagnostic tool in patients with controversial mammographic findings and could also reduce the need for cost-intensive and often uncomfortable management of these patients.  (+info)

J. Michael Dixon, MBChB,MD, FRCS, FRCSEd, FRCP, Edinburgh Breast Unit,Western General Hospital, Edinburgh, Scotland.. The incidence of breast cancer increases with advancing age, and the relative frequency of benign breast disease (BBD) decreases. Therefore, all breast symptoms or abnormalities should be assessed with triple testing (clinical examination, imaging, +/-percutaneous needle biopsy if a localized lesion is identified) to establish a diagnosis.The spectrum of BBD changes substantially from about age 45 onwards.We review some of the benign conditions that occur in older women, such as cysts and duct ectasia, and describe clinical features and management.We also discuss specific BBDs that may be encountered more frequently and in a much older population of women than was previously identified, a consequence of both increased incidence of BBD due to past use of hormone replacement therapy and improved detection ...

Human breast fibroblasts inhibit growth of the MCF10AT xenograft model of proliferative breast disease | RTIHuman breast fibroblasts inhibit growth of the MCF10AT xenograft model of proliferative breast disease | RTI
Stromal fibroblasts are important for normal breast homeostasis and regulation of epithelial growth; however, this regulatory function is altered during carcinogenesis. To study the role of fibroblasts in the development of breast cancer, fibroblasts derived from normal breast (NAFs) were incorporated into the MCF10AT xenograft model of progressive proliferative breast disease. The persistence of human NAFs in xenografts was established by intracellular labeling and tyramide-coupled fluorescent in situ hybridization.

To evaluate the spectrum of breast diseases and their association with presenting complains of patients. It was a cross sectional study conducted from 1st January 2010 - 30th December 2012. A total of 254 breast specimens of patients, who were admitted in Civil Hospital Karachi with breast complaints, were included. Specimens were collected either from mastectomy, lumpectomy or needle biopsy from the admitted patients. Informed written consent was taken from all the patients. All patients with primary breast diseases were included. Patients undergoing chemotherapy or with secondary breast disease and slides with insufficient specimen were excluded. All data was entered and analyzed through SPSS 19. There were 254 breast lesions, histologically diagnosed in 3 year review period. The overall mean age of patients with breast lesion was 25.18, SD ± 11.73 with a wide age range of 12-74 years. Most common cases identified are benign 191(75.3%), followed by inflammatory 30(11.8%) and malignant lesions 30(11.8

Editorials: Evaluation of Common Breast Problems in Family Practice - American Family PhysicianEditorials: Evaluation of Common Breast Problems in Family Practice - American Family Physician
In this issue of American Family Physician, Morrow1 discusses the evaluation of three common breast problems: breast pain, nipple discharge and breast mass. I agree with the authors assertion that the goal of the evaluation is to exclude cancer and treat symptoms.. It seems prudent to include a review of risk factors in the efforts to exclude breast cancer. Risk factors include age, family history of breast cancer, early menarche, older age at first full-term pregnancy, nulliparity, presence or history of benign breast disease, and late menopause. Potentially modifiable risk factors include higher body mass index, heavy use of alcohol, use of oral contraceptives and not having breast-fed.2. The psychosocial impact of breast problems on patients is a frequently overlooked aspect of the evaluation of common breast problems. Because breast problems cause such a high level of distress for patients, particularly before a definitive diagnosis is obtained,3 physical examination alone may not provide ...

I was diagnosed with cyclic mastalgia several years ago. : Terry Talks NutritionI was diagnosed with cyclic mastalgia several years ago. : Terry Talks Nutrition
Q. Dear Terry, I was diagnosed with cyclic mastalgia several years ago. Before my menstrual cycle, both of my breasts become extreme painful. One of my friends told me it could be from a hormone issue. Is there anything that might help? - Angela S., St. Louis, MO. A. Dear Angela, Cyclic mastalgia is experienced by up to 70% of menstruating women. The pain generally starts about seven days before menstruation and then decreases. I believe that through our exposure to xenoestrogens (estrogen mimicking compounds), many people are considered estrogen dominant. This means that estrogen levels are higher in comparison to other sex hormones, like progesterone. When estrogen becomes out of balance in women, it can lead to a variety of issues, including the cyclic mastalgia you are experiencing.. While estrogen is necessary for good health, it goes through a life cycle that can transform it into unhealthy and unfavorable forms. Diindolylmethane (DIM) is a compound from cruciferous vegetables like ...

Alcohol might increase risk of breast cancer in young women - KMOV.comAlcohol might increase risk of breast cancer in young women - KMOV.com
CBS News) -- New research shows alcohol might be linked to benign breast disease in young women. A new study that looked at 16 to 23-year-olds found the more they drank, the higher their risk.. Benign breast disease is a mixed group of different conditions like lumps or cysts, and they can be a warning sign. Theyre just thought the be a marker for increased risk of breast cancer, said Dr. Rulla Tamimi of the Brigham and Womens Hospital study. We consider them altogether; women have about a 50 percent increased risk of developing breast cancer.. Young women who drank six to seven days per week had more than five times the risk of benign breast disease than young women who never drank. Women who drank three to five days per week had three times the risk.. I think this really says that perhaps women should really consider modifying their alcohol intake, said Tamimi.. The findings are a wake-up call after a study last year that found binge drinking among college women in their early 20s ...

NEW SCAN ALMOST 100% ACCURATE IN IDENTIFYING BREAST CANCER. An estimated 1.4 million women undergo breast biopsies every year in the United States for abnormal findings on their mammograms, and approximately 85 percent of these suspicious mammographic findings will turn out to be benign following biopsy.. At the present time, breast imaging technology has not advanced enough to replace biopsy for most women with suspicious abnormalities noted on mammograms, or for women who develop palpable breast lumps. For example, MRI scans can detect 95 to 98 percent of early breast cancers, but MRI is also associated with a very high false-positive rate, in which as many as 25 percent of identified abnormalities turn out, after biopsy, to be benign. In an ideal world, a perfect breast scan would accurately identify 100 percent of cancers and 100 percent of benign breast lesions, but such a scan does not exist at this time. However, a new technology for scanning small cores of breast tissue removed ...

Benign Breast Disease an Important Breast Cancer Risk Factor | EmaxHealthBenign Breast Disease an Important Breast Cancer Risk Factor | EmaxHealth
Dr. Hartmann and her co-investigators were heartened to find convincing evidence that women with the most common, non-proliferative forms of benign findings had no increased risk of developing breast cancer -- as long as they did not have a strong family history of breast cancer. However, for proliferative and atypical types, the opposite was true, and these lesions pointed to an increased risk of a future breast cancer, even when the family history of breast cancer was negative. Dr. Hartmann and her colleagues say continued studies of this kind are necessary to help understand the process of breast cancer development.. The study population of 9,087 women was drawn from the Mayo Clinic Surgical and Pathology Indices, identifying women ages 18 to 85, who had a biopsy of a benign breast lesion during a 25-year period from Jan. 1, 1967, through Dec. 31, 1991. Family histories were obtained at time of follow-up and from Mayo medical record questionnaires.. All benign breast samples were evaluated by ...

Vibro-acoustography (VA) is a newly developed imaging technology that is based on low-frequency vibrations induced in the object by the radiation force of ultrasound. VA is sensitive to the dynamic characteristics of tissue. Here, we evaluate the performance of VA in identifying benign lesions and compare the results to those of mammography. An integrated mammography-VA system designed for in vivo breast imaging was tested on a group of female volunteers, age ≥ 18 years, with suspected breast lesions based on clinical examination. A set of VA scans was acquired after each corresponding mammography. Most lesions were classified as benign based on their histological results. However, in 4 cases, initial diagnosis based on clinical imaging determined that the lesions were cysts. These cysts were aspirated with needle aspiration and disappeared completely under direct ultrasound visualization. Therefore, no biopsies were performed on these cases and lesions were classified as benign based on clinical

MMP9: matrix metallopeptidase 9 | Cancer Genetics WebMMP9: matrix metallopeptidase 9 | Cancer Genetics Web
Metastasis accounts for the majority of cancer-associated mortality and renders the targeted therapy fruitless in the patients of breast cancer. Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF-C) are thought to be involved in tumor progression and metastasis. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of MMP-9 and VEGF-C at both mRNA and protein levels in breast cancer and to correlate with lymph node metastasis and other clinicopathological characteristics. Biopsy specimens (N = 100) of breast cancer & benign breast disease (N = 100) were investigated for the mRNA expression of MMP-9 and VEGF-C by Real-time PCR and Protein expression by Western blot. Elevated levels of MMP-9 (p < 0.001) and VEGF-C (p < 0.001) expression were detected in breast cancer with corresponding to benign breast disease. Additionally, we found significantly increased levels of MMP-9 and VEGF-C in node-positive group with respect to node-negative group. Moreover, the levels of ...

Women with benign proliferative breast disease (BPBD) are at increased risk for developing breast cancer. Evidence suggests that accumulation of adipose tissue can influence breast cancer development via hyperinsulinemia, increased estrogen, and/or inflammation. However, there are limited data investigating these pathways with respect to risk of BPBD. We evaluated serologic markers from these pathways in a case-control study of postmenopausal women nested within the Womens Health Initiative Clinical Trial. Cases were the 667 women who developed BPBD during follow-up, and they were matched to 1,321 controls. Levels of insulin, estradiol, C-reactive protein (CRP), and adiponectin were measured in fasting serum collected at baseline. Conditional logistic regression models were used to estimate ORs for the association of each factor with BPBD risk. Among nonusers of hormone therapy, fasting serum insulin was associated with a statistically significant increase in risk of BPBD (OR for highest vs. ...

Mastalgia: Prevalence at a Sub-Saharan African Tertiary HospitalMastalgia: Prevalence at a Sub-Saharan African Tertiary Hospital
|i|Introduction|/i|. Mastalgia is a common breast condition among women referred to breast clinics worldwide. Whereas the prevalence is known in the Western world and Asia, the prevalence of the disease is unknown in many African countries. The aim of this study therefore was to determine the prevalence and describe factors associated with mastalgia among women attending a tertiary hospital in sub-Saharan Africa. |i|Methods|/i|. A cross-sectional study was done in Kampala, Uganda. Mastalgia was defined as self-reported breast pain (unilateral or bilateral) for a period not less than two months. A pretested questionnaire was used to collect the data and statistical analysis was performed using SPSS version 11. Ethical approval was obtained. |i|Results|/i|. Out of the 1048 women who presented to the breast clinic during the study period, 168 (16%) were diagnosed with mastalgia in the absence of breast cancer. Noncyclical and cyclical mastalgia were 22/168 (13%) and 5/168 (3%), respectively. The onset of

Atypical hyperplasia is identified in 4% to 10% of benign breast biopsies (42-44). Recent data suggest that the absolute risk of future breast cancer imparted after a biopsy demonstrating atypia is about 30% at 25 years, comparable to the risk associated with mantle radiation prior to 31 years, a well-recognized indication for breast cancer risk reduction interventions (33, 45-47). While a prior benign breast biopsy showing atypia confers a substantial risk for the future development of breast cancer, currently used models to predict breast cancer risk are poorly applicable to these women, although a risk model incorporating benign breast biopsy histology recently has been published (48). In current practice, the use of cumulative incidence data is recommended when counseling women with atypical hyperplasia on their future risk of breast cancer and the number of atypical foci is reported as the best further discriminant of risk for these high-risk women (47). Despite these advances, further ...

NewYork-Presbyterian Queens - Breast Cancer Risk Not Higher with Limited Caffeine UseNewYork-Presbyterian Queens - Breast Cancer Risk Not Higher with Limited Caffeine Use
The authors note that caffeine - found in coffee, chocolate, tea, soft drinks, and various medications - is thought to be the worlds most commonly ingested drug.. That said, recent research focused on women diagnosed with non-cancerous breast disease revealed that cutting caffeine from the diet could improve symptoms among such patients.. Because benign breast disease is considered to be a risk factor for developing the malignant form of the disease, this finding had raised concerns that caffeine might also elevate the risk for breast cancer.. To explore this possibility, Dr. Zhang looked at the diets of almost 39,000 women over the age of 45 over a period of four years, between 1992 and 1995.. All the women were part of The Womens Health Study, a cohort of US health professionals, and 75 percent were registered nurses.. All the women worked as health-care professionals - three-quarters as registered nurses.. The research team observed that nearly one-quarter never drank coffee, and about ...

A research team at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, TX, is investigating whether the amount of DNA damage seen in the cells in normal breast tissue may be an indicator of future breast cancer risk. The researchers recruited women who had a benign breast biopsy and then went on to develop breast cancer (Phase I) and women who had a benign breast biopsy but did NOT go on to develop breast cancer (Phase II). By recruiting women who did develop breast cancer and women who did not, they will be able to look for markers in the breast cells that might be an indicator of breast cancer risk. The researchers wanted to enroll at least 150 women in the study. The Call to Action for Phase I was sent to Army of Women members on August 11, 2010, while the Call to Action for Phase II was sent on January 18, 2012.

Look for dimpling, puckering, or redness of the breast. Then lie flat on your back and using your sensitive fingertips search one breast and then the other. If you think you have found a lump, you compare it with the same area on the opposite side, the mirror-image of it. If you can find something there that is similar, it may turn out to be normal tissue. You also look for a dominant lump, or one that is larger than the other normal-sized lumps, and you look for a lack of symmetry from side to side.. Breast problems are evaluated by physical exam, and by testing that includes breast ultrasound, mammography and MRI. We perform a clinical breast exam in our office at least once a year. We check for changes in size or shape, we look for dimples or redness of the skin. We feel for lumps that are larger than they should be, and we ...

Background Females with atypical hyperplasia (AH) on a benign breast biopsy (BBB) are at increased risk for the development of breast cancer. not significantly contribute to breast cancer risk. The lack of a significant dose-response relationship between extent and type of atypia and breast cancer risk suggests that it would be premature to use extent of atypia to influence management decisions in women with ADH or ALH. and extent of atypia, it became apparent that association between extent of atypia and breast cancer risk was being driven by type of atypia, i.e. ALH, rather than extent of atypia (Table 3).

Pharmaceutical info: Proteins Hit the Diagnostic MarkPharmaceutical info: Proteins Hit the Diagnostic Mark
Power3 Medical Products, Inc. (Houston) is a clinical diagnostics company commercializing powerful proteomics methods for diagnosing a range of serious human illnesses. Among its development-stage tests are diagnostics for cancer, neurologic diseases, and cancer drug resistance. In developing its breast cancer diagnostic, Power3 used 2-D gel electrophoresis to quantify differentially expressed protein biomarkers related to that disease from a group of 39 breast cancer patients and 38 controls with benign breast disease. The result was a proteomic profile of the serum and a statistical model that differentiates breast cancer patients from control subjects.. From thousands of expressed proteins, researchers identified a panel of 22 protein biomarkers whose expression differs significantly between the test groups. These proteins were selected by image analysis and identified using high performance liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry.. No single biomarker among these 22 possessed any ...

The human genes BRCA1 and BRCA2 produce tumor suppressor proteins that help repair damaged DNA playing a very important role ensuring the stability of genetic cell material. If the genes are mutated, the proteins will either not be produced or will not be functional. As a result, cells are more likely to develop additional genetic alterations that can lead to cancer. In the general population, approximately 1 in 8 women (12%) will develop breast cancer in their lifetime, and 1 in 75 women (1.4%) will be diagnosed with ovarian cancer in their lifetime (SEER seer.cancer.gov/). Most cases of breast or ovarian cancers develop sporadically with no family history of the cancer. Individual risk factors and exposures, such as age, pregnancy history, menstrual history, benign breast disease, radiation exposure, and alcohol intake, are known to modify a womans chance of developing these types of cancers. However, 5-10% of breast cancer cases and 15-20% of ovarian cancer cases are thought to be due to a ...

Pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia is a rare benign breast neoplasm. The exact prevalence of this condition is unknown. According to the literature, it is an extremely uncommon disease in adolescent patients, especially when presenting with a giant mass causing significant breast enlargement. The clinical management of pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia continues to be a controversial issue, however, surgical treatment remains the most accepted when there is an important mass-effect. We report the case of a 12-year-old premenarchal female, referred to our hospital with complaints of a rapidly enlarging left breast mass, of 12cm in diameter, causing a significant breast asymmetry. The ultrasonographic findings were unspecific. The core needle biopsy of the mass was consistent with pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia, consequently, successful surgical excision was performed. This case illustrates a particularly unusual presentation of pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia in a premenarchal

Hamartomas of the breast, also known as fibroadenolipomas, lipofibroadenomas or adenolipomas, are benign lesions. Hamartomas account for between 0.04 and 1.15% of all benign breast tumors in females. Myoid hamartoma of the breast (MHB) is extremely rare. The present study describes a case of MHB in a 44-year-old female. Screening mammography revealed a lobulated partial indistinct isodense mass measuring ~3.8 cm in the upper outer quadrant of the left breast. Sonographic examinations revealed a 2-3-cm mass in the left breast, which was fairly well circumbscribed and demonstrated complex scattered echogenic areas and isoechoic tissue. A core needle biopsy demonstrated fibrocystic changes, with small focal ductule aggregations. As malignancy could not be excluded, a partial mastectomy was performed using a circumareolar incision. The mass was histopathologically diagnosed as MHB with focal chondromyoxid metaplasia and pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia. The histological diagnosis was based upon ...

Elastography is a promising way to evaluate tissue differences regarding stiffness, and the stiffness of the malignant breast lesions increased at the lesion margin. However, there is a lack of data on the value of the shear wave elastography (SWE) parameters of the surrounding tissue (shell) of different diameter on the diagnosis of benign and malignant breast lesions. Therefore, the purpose of our study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of shell elasticity in the diagnosis of benign and malignant breast lesions using SWE. Between September 2016 and June 2017, women with breast lesions underwent both conventional ultrasound (US) and SWE. Elastic values of the lesions peripheral tissue were determined according to the shell size, which was automatically drawn along the edge of the lesion using the following software guidelines: (1): 1 mm; (2): 2 mm; and (3): 3 mm. Quantitative elastographic features of the inner lesions and shell, including the elasticity mean (Emean), elasticity maximum (Emax)

Benign Breast Disease - Breast Cancer KentBenign Breast Disease - Breast Cancer Kent
Benign (non-cancerous) diseases of the breast are common throughout a womans life. All new breast symptoms require a full assessment and often a biopsy is required to confirm the diagnosis. Probably the most worrying symptom is a breast lump and the cause of a benign lump often depends on the age of the woman. Young women are susceptible to a type of lump called a fibroadenoma often seen in the late teens/ early twenties. They are made up of a combination of connective tissue and active breast tissue (epithelium) and are completely benign. They can be removed or left alone once diagnosed.. Very rarely, the lump is a phyllodes tumour in which the connective tissue is found to be abnormal. The majority of phyllodes tumours are benign but they can be borderline or completely malignant. Phyllodes tumours are usually found in older women and tend to grow rapidly and need to be removed with a cuff of normal tissue to reduce the risk of them returning. Women who have phyllodes tumours removed are seen ...

CYP19A1 encodes for aromatase, which irreversibly converts androgens to estrogens; variation in this gene may affect individual susceptibility to breast cancer and other sex hormone-dependent outcomes. In a case-control study nested within a breast self-examination trial conducted in China, we examined whether CYP19A1 polymorphisms (rs1870049, rs1004982, rs28566535, rs936306, rs11636639, rs767199, rs4775936, rs11575899, rs10046, and rs4646) were associated with risk of breast cancer and fibrocystic breast conditions. Cases were diagnosed with breast cancer (n = 614) or fibrocystic breast conditions (n = 465) during 1989 to 2000. Controls were free of breast disease during the same period (n = 879). Presence of proliferative changes within the extratumoral tissue of women with breast cancer and the lesions of women with fibrocystic conditions only was assessed. None of the polymorphisms were associated with overall risk of breast cancer or fibrocystic breast conditions. Differences in breast ...

The most common type of breast pain is associated with the menstrual cycle and is nearly always hormonal. Some women begin to have pain around the time of ovulation which continues until the beginning of their menstrual cycle. The pain can either be barely noticeable or so severe that the woman cannot wear tight-fitting clothing or tolerate close contact of any kind. The pain may be felt in only one breast or may be felt as a radiating sensation in the under-arm region.. Some physicians have women chart their breast pain to determine if the pain is cyclical or not. After a few months, the relationship between the menstrual cycle and breast pain will emerge.. Physicians continue to study the role that hormones play in cyclical mastalgia. One study has suggested that some women with cyclical mastalgia have a decreased ratio of progesterone to estrogen in the second half of the menstrual cycle. Other studies have found that an abnormality in the hormone prolactin may affect breast pain. Hormones ...

Results from a continuing clinical trial in benign breast disease indicate that danazol may induce progesterone receptors and that this effect persists after treatment. In women given danazol the number of biopsy specimens that were positive for progesterone receptors rose from 14 out of 31 before treatment to 23 out of 30 at the end of six months treatment and remained raised at 21 out of 31 six months later. The number of biopsy specimens that were positive for oestrogen receptors rose transiently from eight out of 31 to 12 out of 30 and then fell to six out of 31. A satisfactory clinical response was achieved in 26 of the 31 patients but was maintained in only 11 six months or more after the end of treatment. It was only in this group that a significant and long-standing increase in progesterone receptors was observed. These findings suggest that in some women with benign breast disease who have been treated with danazol changes occur that may have long term benefit. ...

PT is a rare disease that is classified into benign, borderline, and high grade malignant tumors. The distinction among these three subgroups is based on the combination of histological characteristics of the tumors and also it is predictive of the probable clinical course (4).. The epithelial component of PT may show changes ranging from hyperplasia to invasive carcinoma. Sawyer et al. showed hyperplasia in the epithelial component of PT in 60%, and a moderate to strong overexpression of cyclin D1 in 46% of cases (5). Cyclin D1 is frequently overexpressed in breast cancer and DCIS (6, 7) but not in atypical ductal hyperplasia and other benign breast diseases. So it was unexpected to find such expression in the epithelium of benign tumors (8, 9).. As it was mentioned before, the median age of occurrence of phyllodes tumor is 40 - 50 years, and also ductal carcinoma in situ arising in phyllodes tumor is a rare situation, so our patient aged 26 years old was one of the youngest cases of benign PT ...

A research team at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, TX, is investigating whether the amount of DNA damage seen in the cells in normal breast tissue may be an indicator of future breast cancer risk. The researchers recruited women who had a benign breast biopsy and then went on to develop breast cancer (Phase I) and women who had a benign breast biopsy but did NOT go on to develop breast cancer (Phase II). By recruiting women who did develop breast cancer and women who did not, they will be able to look for markers in the breast cells that might be an indicator of breast cancer risk. The researchers wanted to enroll at least 150 women in the study. The Call to Action for Phase I was sent to Army of Women members on August 11, 2010, while the Call to Action for Phase II was sent on January 18, 2012.

Background: More than half of women present nipple discharge during reproductive age. Case: This case is about a 36 years old woman with unilateral spontaneous hyaline nipple discharge associated with breast pain. The study of scintimammography was compatible with multifocal proliferative lesion in situ. It was performed cytological smear of nipple discharge. It was paucicellular smear represented by cluster of ductal cells in three-dimensional design with hyperchromatic nuclei in the presence of myoepithelial cells. Red cells and signs of necrosis were not observed. The diagnosis of in situ ductal carcinoma was confirmed in biopsy and mastectomy specimen through the expression of calponin in myoepithelial cells at immunohistochemistry. It is known that the cytological examination of nipple discharge has low sensitivity and specificity. However, it is an easy and inexpensive procedure. Suspicious or positive results, may be important for guidance workup of patients in order to perform earlier ...

Central duct excision - WikipediaCentral duct excision - Wikipedia
Central duct excision (also: major duct excision or Hadfields procedure) is the surgical removal (excision) of all lactiferous duct under the nipple. The excision of a single duct is called microdochectomy, a mere incision of a mammary duct (without excision) is microdochotomy. Central duct excision is a standard treatment of in case there is nipple discharge which stems from multiple ducts or cannot be traced back to a single duct. It is also indicated if there is bloody nipple discharge in patients beyond childbearing age. Duct excision may be indicated for the treatment of recurrent breast abscess and mastitis, and the total removal of all ducts from behind the nipple has been recommended to avoid further recurrence. In particular if the patient wishes to preserve breastfeeding ability, the condition of the mammary duct system is investigated by means of galactography (ductography) or ductoscopy in order to determine whether the excision of a single duct (microdochectomy) would be ...

Non-cyclical mastalgia may arise from the breast tissue itself, the underlying ribs, or from conditions such as hiatus hernia and angina. Although non-cyclical breast pain is not usually a symptom of cancer, occasionally, cancer has been detected in women with breast pain, especially if they are over 40 years old. Consequently, if you have non-cyclical mastalgia, it is important to consult your doctor.. Women with non-cyclical breast pain affecting one breast will require breast examination and they should also have a mammogram if they are over 35 years old. Treatment will depend upon the cause of the pain. Inflammation in the ribs can be treated with simple painkillers, such as ibuprofen (tablet or gel), whereas other conditions, such as angina or hiatus hernia, will require specialist treatment.. The general treatment for non-cyclical mastalgia is listed below:. ...

Low-Dose Tamoxifen Was Safe and Effective at Reducing Recurrence and New Breast Disease for Patients With DCIS, LCIS, and ADHLow-Dose Tamoxifen Was Safe and Effective at Reducing Recurrence and New Breast Disease for Patients With DCIS, LCIS, and ADH
Breast intraepithelial neoplasia is a term for a group of noninvasive conditions in which abnormal cells are found in the breast, including ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS), and atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH), said Andrea De Censi, MD, director of the medical oncology unit at the National Hospital E.O. Ospedali Galliera - S.C. Oncologia Medica in Genoa, Italy. These conditions significantly increase a womans risk for invasive breast cancer. Because they are often driven by the hormone estrogen, treatment commonly includes five years of tamoxifen, given at 20 mg per day, after surgery and, if needed, radiotherapy ...

Breast pain, or mastalgia, is a common problem, accounting for at least 50% of breast problems presenting in general practice and 14% of referrals to an Australian breast clinic.1 As stated in the beginning, many women suffer breast pain so severe that it affects their lifestyles, marriages and sexual relationships, and even prevents them from hugging their children. If no obvious physical cause is found, the problem is all too often dismissed, without appropriate empathy and reassurance, as a normal physiological effect. However, its aetiology is not clear. ...

MammographyMammography
A mammogram is a procedure that uses low-dose x-rays to image breasts. Mammograms are used to aid in the early detection and diagnosis of breast diseases in women and men. Mammograms are used as a screening tool to detect early breast cancer in women experiencing no symptoms and to detect and diagnose breast disease in women experiencing symptoms such as a lump, pain or nipple discharge. Mammograms are performed by Medical Radiation Technologists with specific training in mammography. The Ontario Breast Screening Program (OBSP) is offered at all Trillium Health Partners locations.. ...
