Background: Benign breast diseases constitute a heterogeneous group of disorders including developmental abnormality, epithelial and stromal proliferation, inammatory lesions and neoplasm. Benign breast lesions deserve attention because of their high prevalence, their impact on women's life and due to cancerous potential of some histological types. Treatment of BBDS is preservation of breast tissue as far as possible in contrast to traumatizing mutilating surgeries in breast cancers. Objectives:To study pattern and presentation of benign breast lesions over a period of 1 year in a tertiary care hospital of Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh. Material and Methods: This study of 180 cases of histologically diagnosed benign breast lesions was carried out in the Department of Pathology, at tertiary care teaching hospital with attached peripheral hospitals in a metropolitan city of western India from August 2018 to July 2019. Results: Out of 180 benign lesions, 175 (97.2%) were found in females and 05 (2.8%) were found in males. Commonest benign breast lesion was broadenoma (86.1%), followed by brocystic disease (2.2%) and gynaecomastia (2.8%). Conclusion: Fibroadenoma is the most common benign breast disease. Most of the patients presented with painless lump in the breast in upper outer quadrant of the breast. Histopathology plays an important role in the diagnosis of benign breast diseases.

Background: Study of pattern of benign breast disease is a challenge due to variants in occurrence and presentation in different age groups and different geographical areas. The objective was to study the pattern of benign breast diseases and its clinical, pathological and radiological correlation.Methods: This is a prospective study of females with benign breast diseases presenting to surgery department. This work was done for studying the age distribution, to evaluate the different types of benign diseases of the breast, their mode of clinical presentation, pathology, to evaluate the accuracy of different modes of triple assessment and various modes of management for different types of Benign Breast Diseases. Patients with obvious malignancy and males were excluded from the study.Results: A total of 200 females were included in the study. Fibroadenoma (55%) was the commonest diseases with presenting mostly at 20-24years of age. Clinical examination had accuracy of 88%, USG had accuracy of 77.3%, FNAC had 93% and mammography had 83.33% accuracy foe diagnosing benign breast diseases.Conclusions: Benign breast diseases are common problems of 2nd and 3rd decade in females and raises considerable fear of malignancy. The patients of BBDs generally present with one or more of these complaints-breast lump, breast pain or nipple discharge. All the patients with discrete breast lumps should undergo a triple assessment to make an early diagnosis.

Women with benign breast diseases (BBD) are at a high risk of developing breast cancer. Objective: Purpose of the study was to analyze the spectrum of BBD in a tertiary care hospital of Lahore to understand the prevalence of inflammatory lesions, benign neoplasms and their age-wise comparison.Methodology: The study was carried out at Pathology Department, King Edward Medical University, Lahore. Data of 368 cases of BBD during a time span of 3 years (2011-2014) was obtained retrospectively.Results: There were 190 patients of fibroadenoma (FA), 81 of fibrocystic disease (FCD), 64 of breast abscess (BA), 12 of granulomatous mastitis (GM), 7 of lipoma, 5 of phylloides tumor (PL), 4 of fibrosis (F), 2 of intraductal papilloma (IDP) and 3 of accessory breast with Fibrocystic (FC) changes. The relation between theages and frequency of the different types of lesions was also analyzed to understand the association between predisposing factors and the nature of lesions.Conclusions: Out results demonstrated that the FA is the most frequent benign breast lesions and is common among young females with age ranges from 10 to 20 years. FCD is the second most common lesion, while FA and FCD are less common among women older than 40 years. Benign neoplasms are more frequentamong women of the Lahore. There were only three cases of sclerosing adenosis, 2 of microglandularadenosis, 3 of hyperplasia and no case of radial scar.

Background: Benign breast conditions are associated with morbidity and great concern for the patient and are 4-5 times more common than breast cancer. Benign breast diseases are the most common cause of breast problems in females and it is more frequent than malignant ones up to 30% of women will suffer from a benign breast disease requiring one or other sort of treatment at some part of their lives. Objectives were to find out the proportions of various benign breast lesions among women aged 18 yrs and above.  Methods: A prospective study was conducted in the Department of Surgery, Shree Gokulam Medical College, Thiruvananthapuram for a period of 18 Months from January 2016 to June 2017. A total of 180 study subjects were included in the study. All the women aged more than 18 yrs. old attending the surgery OPD with palpable or immunologically detected breast lesions will be consecutively selected for the study. Results: The commonest case among the study population was fibroadenoma 56 (31.1%). There were 9 cases of duct ectasia, 8 duct papilloma’s. Fibroadenoma could be diagnosed clinically with an accuracy of about 88% (56 cases) out of total 69 cases.Conclusions: In short, a comprehensive clinical history and a triple assessment would suffice the tool for effective diagnosis of Benign breast diseases within 72 hrs. With correct radiological and cytological assement unnecessary morbidity associated with surgeries can be avoided in some patients.

Background: Fibroadenomas are the most common benign breast diseases in country. Aim of study is to determine some demographic factors & the clinical summary of fibroadenoma cases in our tertiary care hospital. Material&Methods: A retrospective cytological study of fibroadenoma for period of 2years from medical records of January2017 to December2018. Results: All 142 cases were females. Most common age group was 21 to 30 years (50%) followed by 31 to 40 years (38%). Right breast was commonly involved and most fibroadenomas were confined to upper and outer quadrant. Conclusion: .FNAC of breast is economic, safe, and highly accurate method for diagnosis of breast lump preoperatively to avoid undue surgery and inconvenience during biopsy. Health education, Breast self-examination and FNAC is recommended for early diagnosis and management.

Background: Benign breast disease is one of the most common breast lesions in the reproductiveage group. Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is one of the preliminary tests done to detectbreast lesions which help in early detection and management. Studying the cytology features ofvarious benign breast diseases was the aim of this study. Methods: This study is a cross-sectionalretrospective study conducted in the Department of Pathology from 2015 to 2020. Clinical detailsand cytology features were collected from the Department records. Results: A total of 430 caseswere collected during the study period. Age groups ranged from 16-40 years. All the cases werefemales. The spectrum of lesions was composed of fibroadenoma, fibrocystic change, breastabscess, fibroadenosis, granulomatous mastitis, etc. Conclusions: Breast lumps are a commoncause of anxiety and apprehension among patients. FNAC helps in rapid diagnosis and earlymanagement of lesions. It also helps in preventing unnecessary invasive surgeries in non-neoplasticand benign breast diseases.
