Breast Cancer

Among all cancers ladies, he takes the initial place. In most cases, breast cancers develops inside the 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 in the nipple along with the nipple of the field (Paget's disease in the breast). For the nodular cancers are seen as an the node developing a diameter up to several centimeters. In some cases, a tight knot, is permeated with whitish layers tissue penetrating into the surrounding dimply skin, in other people - a soft, juicy on the cut, splits easily. Diffuse cancer of the prostate is covered for the considerable distance, the contours of the tumor are marked bad. Sometimes the cancer invades your skin and forms about the surface of decaying mushroom formation - a cancerous ulcer. In some cases, the tumor spreads down the surface in the breast and all the iron is included with a dense shell.

In histological structure would be the following forms of cancer of the breast:

• noninvasive: intralobular and intraduct;

• infiltrative.

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

Infiltrating (invasive) cancer is seen as an varying examples of tissue and cell irregularities, which allowed to distinguish different degree of malignancy. This type of cancer include, particularly, infiltrating ductal and lobular carcinoma, which often gets the structure of scirrhus, and also Paget's disease.

Causes of Breast Cancer.

The causes of cancer of the breast often are hormonal changes inside the body: the entry into menopause, when there is an engaged restructuring of the hormonal regulation of the woman, the ovaries lose their activity, decreased manufacture of progesterone and estrogen, the body goes through, "hormonal crisis." The mammary gland and endometrium (lining in the uterus) are most attentive to these changes, the breast type tissue begins to dissolve and be replaced by fat.

Scientifically established the female hormones estrogen-, plays an important role within the growth and development of breast cancer. The excess hormones within the body results in a favorable background for developing the condition. The least active hormones estrogen behave in pregnancy and after birth - during breastfeeding. It is proved that this birth and prolonged breastfeeding (over 12 months) to relieve potential risk of developing cancer of the breast. On the other hand, abortion result in hormonal "explosion" inside a woman's body that will trigger the continuing development of tumors. So far there isn't any consensus in regards to the impact for the continuing development of tumors of hormonal contraceptive drugs, but it is considered that these drugs reduce potential risk of developing cancer of the breast, but increase the risk of developing cancer of the female genital organs, and osteoporosis. In addition predisposition to breast cancers could cause harmful environmental factors: the surroundings, as well as inflammatory diseases previously deferred breast - mastitis.

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

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

The reason behind cancer of the breast will be the connection between radiation, such as irradiation from 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 with the breast and female reproductive :, by having an excess fatty tissue in the body, it will become another endocrine organ and starts to actively produce hormones-estrogens, whose action and provokes the continuing development of tumors.

Symptoms of Breast Cancer

There are many forms with the growth of breast cancers:

- Nodular form, the most frequent, is seen as a dense knot of 0.5 to 5 cm or maybe more, it can be characterized by all from the following symptoms;

- Diffuse. All of them are very aggressive, grow quickly, almost lightning speed, the tumor without having clear boundaries, "spreading" with the breast and skin. For the first two forms are characteristic indications of inflammation: pain from the breast, a bright red color from the skin it raises temperature to 39 degrees C. In view of the symptoms often occur, and errors in carried out patients treated for inflammatory diseases, which are named and therefore are known these forms cancer of the breast. When tubular carcinoma breast cancer cover as being a "skin" of their contracting and decreasing in size.

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

For small tumors of the breast, any symptoms arise. The most observant women and their husbands can easily detect tumor site inside the gland unintentionally, but in a large breast to detect small size hard knot. Revealed a knot may be painful when pressed, round, smooth and agile, this speaks for a benign tumor. Signs of malignancy other: a good knot to touch the stone, its surface is uneven, it can be stationary or slightly shifted, could be firmly fixed towards the surrounding tissue or skin, usually painless, can reach a significant size (greater than three to five cm and infrequently 10-15 cm).

Need to evaluate the surface from the skin over the tumor: the malignant process will probably be observed retraction in the skin, collecting in the folds, wrinkles, a symptom of "lemon peel" - a local swelling with the skin within the tumor, is often a direct tumor invasion to skin surface, then it is a bright red color and sprawl as "cauliflower."
