Breast Cancer

Breast cancer is a heterogeneous malignancy originating from breast epithelial tissue, characterized by uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells that can form tumors and potentially spread to other parts of the body. It primarily affects women but can also occur in men. The disease arises in either the milk ducts (ductal carcinoma) or lobules (lobular carcinoma), with invasive forms spreading beyond the original site. Key risk factors include age, family history, and genetic mutations such as BRCA1 and BRCA2. Common symptoms include a new lump or thickening in the breast or armpit, changes in breast size or shape, skin dimpling, and nipple abnormalities. Early detection through screening methods like mammography significantly improves outcomes, with a 5-year survival rate of approximately 91% in the U.S. Overall, breast cancer remains the second most common cancer in women, emphasizing the importance of awareness, prevention, and timely medical intervention.
