Breast Cancer definition
Breast cancer (CA Mammae) is the most common invasive cancer in
women and the second leading cause of cancer death in women after
lung cancer.
Breast cancer or Ca mammae (carcinoma mammae) is a malignancy
originating from glandular cells, glandular channels and supporting
breast tissue, not including breast skin. Ca mammae is a malignant
tumor that grows in breast tissue. Cancer can begin to grow in the
mammary glands, milk ducts, fat tissue or connective tissue in the
breast. Mammary carcinoma is a disorder in normal mammary cell
growth where abnormal cells arise from normal cells, multiply and
infiltrate lymphatic tissue and blood vessels.
Symptoms
The first symptoms of breast cancer usually appear as an area of
thickened tissue in the breast or a lump in the breast or an armpit.
Other symptoms include:
• pain in the armpits or breast that does not change with the monthly
cycle
• pitting or redness of the skin of the breast, similar to the surface of an
orange
• a rash around or on one of the nipples
• discharge from a nipple, possibly containing blood
• a sunken or inverted nipple
• a change in the size or shape of the breast
• peeling, flaking, or scaling of the skin on the breast or nipple
Stages
• Stage 0: Known as ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), the cells are
limited to within the ducts and have not invaded surrounding tissues.
• Stage 1: At this stage, the tumor measures up to 2 centimeters (cm)
across. It has not affected any lymph nodes, or there are small
groups of cancer cells in the lymph nodes.
• Stage 2: The tumor is 2 cm across, and it has started to spread to
nearby nodes, or is 2–5 cm across and has not spread to the lymph
nodes.
• Stage 3: The tumor is up to 5 cm across, and it has spread to several
lymph nodes or the tumor is larger than 5 cm and has spread to a
few lymph nodes.
• Stage 4: The cancer has spread to distant organs, most often the
bones, liver, brain, or lungs.
Cause
After puberty, a woman’s breast consists of fat, connective tissue,
and thousands of lobules. These are tiny glands that produce milk
for breastfeeding. Tiny tubes, or ducts, carry the milk toward the
nipple.Cancer causes the cells to multiply uncontrollably. They do
not die at the usual point in their life cycle. This excessive cell
growth causes cancer because the tumor uses nutrients and energy
and deprives the cells around it.
Breast cancer usually starts in the inner lining of milk ducts or the
lobules that supply them with milk. From there, it can spread to
other parts of the body.
Risk factors
• Age
• Genetics
• A history of breast cancer or breast lumps
• Dense breast tissue
• strogen exposure and breastfeeding
• Body weight
• Alcohol consumption
• Radiation exposure
• Hormone treatments
Types
There are several different types of breast cancer, including:
• Ductal carcinoma: This begins in the milk duct and is the most
common type.
• Lobular carcinoma: This starts in the lobules.
Diagnosis
• Breast exam
The doctor will check the breasts for lumps and other symptoms.
During the examination, the person may need to sit or stand with their
arms in different positions, such as above their head or by their sides.
• Imaging tests
Several tests can help detect breast cancer.
‣ Mammogram: This is a type of X-ray that doctors commonly use
during an initial breast cancer screening.
‣ Ultrasound: This scan uses sound waves to help a doctor
differentiate between a solid mass and a fluid-filled cyst.
‣ MRI: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) combines different
images of the breast to help a doctor identify cancer or other
abnormalities.
• Biopsy
In a biopsy, the doctor extracts a sample of tissue and sends it for
laboratory analysis.
‣ the size of a tumor
‣ how far it has spread
‣ whether it is invasive or noninvasive
Treatment
The main treatment options include:

• Surgery
• Biological therapy, or targeted drug therapy
• Hormone therapy
• Chemotherapy
• Surgery
If surgery is necessary, the type will depend on both the diagnosis and
individual preference. Types of surgery include:
‣ Lumpectomy: This involves removing the tumor and a small amount of
healthy tissue around it.
‣ Mastectomy: A simple involves removing the lobules, ducts, fatty tissue,
nipple, areola, and some skin. In some types, a surgeon will also remove the
lymph nodes and muscle in the chest wall.
‣ Sentinel node biopsy: If breast cancer reaches the sentinel lymph nodes, which
are the first nodes to which a cancer can spread, it can spread into other parts of
the body through the lymphatic system. If the doctor does not find cancer in the
sentinel nodes, then it is usually not necessary to remove the remaining nodes.
‣ Axillary lymph node dissection: If a doctor finds cancer cells in the sentinel
nodes, they may recommend removing several lymph nodes in the armpit. This
can prevent the cancer from spreading.
‣ Reconstruction: Following mastectomy, a surgeon can reconstruct the breast to
look more natural. This can help a person cope with the psychological effects of
breast removal.
• Radiation therapy
Radiation involves targeting the tumor with controlled doses of
radiation that kill any remaining cancer cells.

• Chemotherapy
may prescribe cytotoxic chemotherapy drugs to kill cancer cells if there
is a high risk of recurrence or spread.
• Hormone blocking therapy
Examples of hormone blocking therapy medications may include:
‣ tamoxifen
‣ aromatase inhibitors
‣ ovarian ablation or suppression
‣ Goserelin, which is a luteinizing hormone-releasing agonist drug that
suppresses the ovaries
• Biological treatment
Targeted drugs can destroy specific types of breast cancer. Examples
include:
‣ trastuzumab (Herceptin)
‣ lapatinib (Tykerb)
‣ bevacizumab (Avastin)
Prevention

There is no way to prevent breast cancer. However, certain lifestyle


decisions can significantly reduce the risk of breast cancer as well as
other types.

These include:
‣ avoiding excessive alcohol consumption
‣ following a healthful diet containing plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables
‣ getting enough exercise
‣ maintaining a healthy body mass index (BMI)
