Breast Neoplasms
Breast neoplasms are abnormal growths, or tumors, of cells in the breast. These tumors can be either benign (noncancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Breast neoplasms are among the most common cancers in women. Some common symptoms of breast neoplasms include a lump or thickening in the breast, change in size or shape of the breast, skin changes such as dimpling, breast pain, and nipple discharge. Diagnosing and treating breast neoplasms early is key to achieving the best health outcome. Screening tests such as mammograms, ultrasounds, and biopsies are used to detect and diagnose breast neoplasms. Depending on the type and stage of the neoplasm, treatment can range from lifestyle changes to surgery and radiation.
