Breast Cancer

Among all cancers in females, he takes the ultimate place. In most cases, breast cancer develops inside presence of precancerous changes. This is primarily a benign mammary dysplasia and papilloma ducts.

Breast cancer is represented macroscopically nodular and diffuse forms, and also cancer with the nipple and the nipple in the field (Paget's disease with the breast). For the nodular cancers are seen as a the node using a diameter as high as several centimeters. In certain cases, a good knot, is permeated with whitish layers tissue penetrating to the surrounding dimply skin, in other people - a soft, juicy on the cut, splits easily. Diffuse cancer of the prostate is roofed for any considerable distance, the contours with the tumor are marked bad. Sometimes the cancer invades skin and forms about the surface of decaying mushroom formation - a cancerous ulcer. In certain instances, the tumor spreads along the surface in the breast and all sorts of the iron is included using a dense shell.

In histological structure include the following varieties of breast cancers:

• noninvasive: intralobular and intraduct;

• infiltrative.

Noninvasive breast cancers can be intralobular (lobular carcinoma in situ), and intraduct (ductal carcinoma in situ).

Infiltrating (invasive) cancer is characterized by varying examples of tissue and cell irregularities, which permitted to distinguish different a higher level malignancy. This type of cancer include, specifically, infiltrating ductal and lobular carcinoma, which will has the structure of scirrhus, as well as Paget's disease.

Causes of Breast Cancer.

The factors behind breast cancer often are hormonal changes inside the body: the entry into menopause, should there be a dynamic restructuring with the hormonal regulation of the woman, the ovaries lose their activity, decreased creation of progesterone and estrogen, our bodies will go through, "hormonal crisis." The mammary gland and endometrium (lining from the uterus) are most attentive to these changes, the breast growth starts to dissolve and be replaced by fat.

Scientifically established the female hormones estrogen-, plays a vital role inside the continuing development of breast cancer. The excess hormones within the body generates a favorable background for developing the illness. The least active hormones estrogen behave during pregnancy and after birth - during breastfeeding. It is proved that the birth and prolonged breastfeeding (greater than 12 months) to relieve the risk of developing cancer of the breast. On the other hand, abortion bring about hormonal "explosion" inside a woman's body that can trigger the development of tumors. So far there is no consensus in regards to the impact on the growth and development of tumors of hormonal contraceptive drugs, but it is considered that these drugs reduce the potential risk of developing breast cancer, but increase the risk of developing cancer of the female genital organs, and osteoporosis. In addition predisposition to breast cancer might cause harmful environmental factors: the planet, along with inflammatory diseases previously deferred breast - mastitis.

In addition, patients having a family of first-degree relatives with breast cancers (mothers and sisters) risk of developing a tumor increasing by greater than half - familial types of cancer.

Benign breast diseases such as fibrocystic breast disease, or fibroadenoz intraduct papillomatosis alone tend not to lead to cancer, but as well, create an unfavorable background because of its development.

The reason for breast cancer would be the results of radiation, such as irradiation with the chest for other diseases (lung tumors, the lymphatic system), prolonged and frequent chest X-ray studies on inflammatory diseases or pulmonary tuberculosis.

Constitutional obesity can result in cancer of the breast and female reproductive :, with an excess fat in the body, it will become a different endocrine organ and begins to actively produce hormones-estrogens, whose action and provokes the growth and development of tumors.

Symptoms of Breast Cancer

There are a couple of forms of the growth of breast cancers:

- Nodular form, the most common, is seen as a a dense knot of 0.5 to five cm or even more, it can be seen as an all in the following symptoms;

- Diffuse. All of them are very aggressive, grow quickly, almost lightning speed, the tumor with no clear boundaries, "spreading" with the breast and skin. For the first couple of forms are characteristic signs and symptoms of inflammation: pain of the breast, a bright red colorization from the skin it raises temperature to 39 degrees C. In view of such symptoms often occur, and errors in proper diagnosis of patients treated for inflammatory diseases, that happen to be named and they are described these forms cancer of the breast. When tubular carcinoma breast cancers cover as being a "skin" of the company's contracting and decreasing in space.

In certain cases, breast cancers manifests in the form of metastases in the lymph nodes on the affected side, often fails to detect the tumor itself - show hidden breast cancer.

For small tumors in the breast, any symptoms arise. The most observant ladies and their husbands have the ability to detect tumor site within the gland unintentionally, but in a very large breast to detect small size hard knot. Revealed a knot might be painful when pressed, round, smooth and agile, this speaks and only a benign tumor. Signs of malignancy other: a strong knot to touch the stone, its surface is uneven, it's stationary or slightly shifted, might be firmly fixed on the surrounding tissue or skin, usually painless, can reach a significant size (more than 3 - 5 cm and quite often 10-15 cm).

Need to evaluate the surface in the skin in the tumor: the malignant process is going to be observed retraction from the skin, collecting inside the folds, wrinkles, an indication of "lemon peel" - a neighborhood swelling from the skin in the tumor, may be a direct tumor invasion to the skin surface, then it is a bright red colorization and sprawl as "cauliflower."
