Benign Breast Lesions

Background and Aim: Benign Breast Diseases (BBDs) is a group of non-cancerous breast diseases. A triple assessment which is done by a clinical examination, imaging like ultrasonography (USG) or mammography and a pathological examination – FNAC or core needle biopsy, during the initial consultation, allows clinicians to give immediate reassurance to most of the patients. The aim of the study was to find out the proportions of various benign breast lesions among women aged 18 years and above. Material and Methods: A prospective study was conducted in the Department of Surgery, Tertiary care institute of India for a period of 20 Months. Based on the pilot study sample size derived was found to be 102. A performa was filled with patient particulars, history and clinical findings in female patient attending department of surgery OPD with breast related symptoms. Patients will be followed up with histopathological, cytological and radiological studies in indicated cases. The patients will be followed up for 1 year. Most common benign breast related symptoms and condition among the study group and probable risk factors for the same will be analyzed. Results:The commonest case among the study population was fibroadenoma 37 (36.27%). The next common was acute breast abscess, followed by fibrocystic disease (9). Lump alone detected either by patient herself or by the clinician was the most common presenting complaint in around 40 patients, followed by lump with pain in around 37, followed by either pain, nipple discharge. Fibroadenoma could be diagnosed clinically with an accuracy of about 89%. Abscess breast, phyllodes tumor and galactocele and few cases of granulomatous mastitis was also able to be diagnosed clinically. Conclusion: Fibrocystic disease is commonest amongst proliferative breast lesions followed by Sclerosing adenosis. Breast abscess is the commonest lesion amongst inflammatory breast lesions. Breast self-examination and health education to females is very important in cases of benign proliferative lesions. Key Words: Benign Breast Diseases, Fibroadenoma, Phyllodes tumor, Ultrasonography

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.

Effective Diagnosis

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.

Benign Breast Diseases

Background: Benign breast disease is one of the most common lesions of breast in the reproductive age group. Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is one of the preliminary tests done to detect breast lesions which help in early detection and management. Studying the cytology and histopathology features of various benign breast diseases was the aim of this study.Methods: This study is a cross sectional retrospective study conducted in Department of Pathology during September 2016 to February 2017. Clinical details, cytology and histopathology features were collected from the Department records.Results: A total of 82 cases were collected during the study period. Age groups ranged from 16-40 years. Majority of cases were females and two cases were males. Spectrum of lesions was composed of fibroadenoma, fibrocystic change, breast abscess, benign phyllodes tumor and gynecomastia. Histopathology was done in 41 cases. There was good correlation between cytology and histopathology in this study.Conclusions: Breast lumps are a common cause of anxiety and apprehension among patients. FNAC helps in rapid diagnosis and early management of lesions. It also helps in preventing unnecessary invasive surgeries in non-neoplastic and benign breast diseases.

Objective: To determine the frequency of benign breast diseases in female patients in our setup. Design: Prospective descriptive study. Place and duration of study: The study was carried on female patients presenting at surgical out door of Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, Lahore during one year i.e. January 2001 to January 2002. Patients and methods: Two hundred female patients presenting with breast lumps at surgical out door of Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, Lahore during one year were studied. All the patients were examined clinically with special emphasis on breast, axilla and supra clavicular fossae. Basic laboratory investigations including blood complete examination, urine complete examination and chest X -ray were done for all the patients. Breast imaging and FNAC of lumps were also done. Final diagnosis was based upon histological examination of the tissues biopsied from the lump. After collecting data, written in proforma, window SPSS software was used to analyze the results. Results: This study shows a high f requency of fibroadenoma (45%) in Pakistani females. Fibrocystic disease is second in frequency and accounts for 36% patients.8% patients had intraductal papilloma and three percent suffered from duct ectasia.5% patients had other conditions related to breast including two patients presenting with pre histological diagnosis of fibrocystic disease who turned out to be malignant after histopathology. Most of the patients had age range of 20-29 years. Conclusion: Fibroadenoma is the commonest of all benign breast diseases in Pakistani women. Fibrocystic change is the second in this regard. Benign lesions of the breast can resemble its carcinoma on clinical examination.

Background:​ With the increasing education on breast cancer, most women are reporting to the hospital with breast lumps most of which are benign breast lesions. Benign breast diseases constitute a heterogeneous group of lesions including developmental abnormalities, inflammatory lesions, epithelial and stromal proliferation and neoplasms. This is to look at the various histologic type of benign proliferative breast diseases among Ghanaian women. Method​s: This is a retrospective study of breast excisions received between 2006-2013 at the Department of Pathology, Korle Bu teaching hospital (KBTH), Ghana. All histological slides were retrieved and examine. Demographic information was also retrieved from the request form. The data was subject to analysis using SPSS version 16.5 and Windows Excel. Results​: During the period of study, 2,805 cases of benign breast lesions were received by the department, out of which 2,396 were proliferative benign lesions representing 89.4%. The top five lesions were fibroadenoma (89.01%), fibroadenomatoid hyperplasia (3.26%), tubular adenoma (2.51%), benign phylloides tumour (1.71%) and intraductal papilloma (1.59%). The average ages of clients with these lesions were 24 years (±8.3 years), 28 years (±10.7 years), 22.7 years (±15 years), 38 years (±14.2 years and 45.4 years (±8.3 years) respectively. Fibroadenoma and benign phelloides tumour have a preponderance to the right and left breast respectively with statistical significance. Conclusion​: There are some differences between benign breast lesions in Ghanaian women as compared to other African countries within the Sub Saharan region.

Background: Breast diseases, among the most common diseases in females occur in various pat­terns from benign to malignant. Their identification is crucial as some of the benign disorders pose threat to turn into malignancy. This study was aimed to determine the spectrum of breast diseases. Methods: This was a hospital based retrospective study among all the patients in General Surgery OPD of Karnali Academy of Health Sciences, Teaching Hospital, diagnosed with breast diseases during one year period from August 2019 to July 2020 AD. Data were extracted and entered in SPSS version 16 for further analysis. Results: Out of 110 cases, only 4 (3.96%) were male. Almost half 54 (49.09%) of the cases were in the age group of 21-30 years. Fibrocystic disease, Breast Abscess and fibroadenoma, and cracked nipple were 39 (35.45%), 38 (34.54%, 15 (13.63%) and 8 (7.28%) respectively. The benign diseases were seen mostly in the younger population while malignant breast diseases were seen in the older population. Mastalgia was mostly seen in the twenties (17.3%) and the thirties (10%) while Breast abscess was commonly encountered in the twenties (16.4%) and the teens (11.8%). The gynaecomastia were seen only in four males. Conclusions: Fibrocystic breast diseases, Mastitis with or without abscess, fibroadenoma and cracked nipples were the first four most common breast diseases in females. The younger popula­tion had predilection towards the benign diseases which occurred most frequently in the third decade while the malignant occurred in sixth and seventh decade.
