This document summarizes information about breast cancer including types, risk factors, symptoms, screening and diagnostic tests, staging, treatment options, and prevention strategies. It discusses the main types of breast cancer such as ductal carcinoma, lobular carcinoma, and inflammatory breast cancer. Risk factors include family history, dense breast tissue, age of starting menstrual periods, and breast radiation. Screening involves breast exams, mammograms, ultrasounds and MRIs. Treatment depends on cancer stage and includes surgery, radiation, hormone therapy, chemotherapy and targeted drug therapy. Prevention focuses on screening, diet, exercise, breastfeeding and limiting alcohol.

12. Pictu
re

15. • A lump in a breast.
• A pain in the armpits or breast that does not
seem to be related to the woman's menstrual
period.
• Pitting or redness of the skin of the breast; like
the skin of an orange.
• A rash around (or on) one of the nipples.

16. Imaging tests
• Breast exam
• Mammograms
• Breast
ultrasound
• Breast MRI scan
• Biopsy

20. ▣ Use magnets and radio waves.
▣ Cross-sectional images of the body.
▣ MRI scans can take a long time.
▣ Used if view areas of concern found on a
mammogram.

23. ▣ Sage 0 : Non –Invasive breast cancer. Has not spread
to breast tissues.
▣ Stage l : ≤ 2cm and has not spread to lymph nodes.
▣ Stage ll
Stage llA: ≤ 2 cm and has spreadto lymph nodes or
2-5 cm and has spread to lymph nodes.
Stage llB: 2-5 cm and has spread to lymph nodes or
> 5 cm and has not spread to lymph nodes.

24. ▣ Stage lll
Stage lllA: ≤ 5cm and spreadto lymph nodes
forming clumps or >5 cm and spread to
lymph nodes without forming clumps.
Stage lllB: Any size and spread to the skin
orchest wall. Swelling.
Stage lllC: Any size , spread to lymph nodes,
skin and chest wall.
▣ Stage lV: Metastasized

25. ▣ The type of breast cancer
▣ The stage and grade of the breast cancer - how large
the tumor is, whether or not it has spread, and if so
how far
▣ Whether or not the cancer cells are sensitive to
hormones
▣ The patient's overall health
▣ The age of the patient
▣ The patient's own preferences

26. TREATMENT
 Surgery
 Radiation therapy
 Biological therapy (targeted drug therapy)
 Hormone therapy
 Chemotherapy

27. :
• Lumpectomy
• Mastectomy
• Lymph node surgery:
• Sentinel node biopsy

28. ▣ Simple mastectomy : removing the lobules,
ducts, fatty tissue, nipple, areola, and some skin.
: simple
mastectomy combined with the removal of the
axillary lymph nodes.
▣ Radical mastectomy: a simple mastectomy
combined with removing the lymph nodes and
muscles of the chest wall.

32. • Breast cancer screening
• Breastfeeding
• Alcohol consumption
• Physical exercise
• Diet
• Postmenopausal hormone therapy
• Bodyweight
