Health problems caused by benign tumors of the breast – breast cancer

Papillomas is ductal epithelial proliferation with fibrovascular support (true tumors, unlike ductal hyperplasia for which the term is sometimes used papillomatosis) according to the predominant cystic component are chistadenoame, respectively, papillary adenoma, if it develops in the lumen of the dilated a duct are called intrachistice. The most commonly develops in the ducts lactifere large subareolar case in which they are located, may become large and cause nipple discharge, sometimes develop from smaller ducts, in which case can be multiple and localized to the side.
Cysts are the most common “tumors” of the breast. Are related to tumor type papillomas, shows histological framed Apocrine metaplasia (large cysts have a wall composed of apocrine cell layer). Intraoperative they look dark (“blue dome cysts”) can treat and discharge simply because it ever raise the suspicion of malignancy.

Atypical ductal hyperplasia is characterized by the presence of three or more cell layers near the basement membrane in a lobular or ductal unit.

Fibroepithelial tumors
Fibroadenoma is an encapsulated tumor that contains both glandular tissue and connective tissue, it can be present in juvenile and giant forms. The notion of complex fibroadenoma refers to fibroadenomas that shows: cystic formations larger than 3 cm sclerosing lesions, epithelial calcifications, papillary apocrine changes.
Benign phyllodes tumor variant is difficult to distinguish from fibroadenoma, is a variant intracanalicular it. Most tumor is given in areas dense connective tissue, edematous or gelatinous; cysts may occur in areas of necrosis, degeneration, etc.. Sarcomatous transformation may occur. Clinic: occurs in young women, sometimes under 18. The tumor is large, sometimes gigantic heterogeneous consistency which does not change overall, do not adhere to surrounding tissues, no lymphadenopathy, skin is relaxed, shiny can ulcerate and become infected. At mammography appear calcification and necrosis areas.
Treatment: small tumors – involving a resection margin of 1 cm.
For histopathology specified, especially if there are elements malignant biopsy is reexcizeaza the edges. Large tumors or malignant elements – mamectomie simple.
Pure breast adenoma – is very rare, being a pure epithelial proliferation. It has two forms:

•   Form acini – normal acini or cystic proliferation;
•   Tubular form – sometimes occurs during lactation (lactating adenoma), the tubular type.

Treatment: sectorectomy with extemporaneous examination.
