Overview

Classification

Classification of breast lumps based on epithelial hyperplasia[1]

  • Approximately 65% of all benign breast disease considered as nonproliferative(NP)with relative cancer risk of 1.2, 1.4 times:
    • Simple cyst
    • Fibrosis
    • Fibroadenoma (simple)
    • Columnar alteration (Simple)
    • Apocrine metaplasia (simple)
    • Mild ductal hyperplasia
  • Approximately 30% of total are classifed as proliferative disease(PD) with relative cancer risk of 1.7, 2.1 times
    • Usual ductal hyperplasia
    • Sclerosing adenosis
    • Columnar hyperplasia
    • papilloma
    • Radical scar
  • Approximately 5% to 8% of the rest regarded to PD with atypia with relative cancer risk more than 4 times
    • Atypical lobar hyperplasia
    • Lobular carcinoma in situ
    • Atypical ductal hyperplasia
  • Unclear risk
    • Mucocele like tumor
    • Apocrine atypia
    • Secretory atypia

Classification of benign breast lesion regarding to histological region:[2]

  • Terminal and lobular ducts
    • Acinar distention
      • Cyst
    • Intralobular connective tissue proliferation
      • Sclerosing adenosis
      • Fibroadenoma
      • Phyllodes tumor
      • Hamartoma
    • Epithelial changes in terminal duct lobaular units (TDLU)
      • Apocrine metaplasia
      • Ductal and lobular hyperplasia, usual and typical
      • Papillomatosis
      • Intracystic papilloma
  • Ductal system
    • Ductal ectasia
    • Intraductal papilloma
  • Lesion of different origin
    • Fatty tissue lesion
      • Lipoma
      • Liponecrosis
    • Fibrous tissue lesions
      • Focal fibrosis
      • Diabetic mastopathy
      • Pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia (PASH)
      • Myofibroblastoma
    • Vascular origin
      • Hemangioma
    • Inflammatory origin
      • Mastitis/abscess
      • Tuberclosis and sarcoidosis
      • Foreign body granuloma and siliconoma
    • Lymph node origin
      • Inflammatory lymoh nodes

Risk factors

Associated risk factors leading to female breast cancer[3]

  • Age: probability of breast cancer from birth to 39 years; 1 in 202, from 40 to 59 years; 1 in 26, from 60 to 69 years; 1 in 28.
  • Personal history of breast cancer
  • Breast pathology: PD with atypia has greater risk of developing to breast cancer in comparison of PD.
  • Family history: greater breast cancer risk in women with first degree relatives with breast cancer under 50 years old.
  • Genetic predisposition
    • High risk
      • BRCA1
      • BRCA2
    • Moderate risk
      • Homozygous ataxia-telangiectasia (ATM)
      • Somatic mutation in CHEK2
      • BRCA1 modifier gene: BRIP1
      • BRCA2 modifier gene: PALB2
    • Low risk
      • These alleles have not designated yet.

Endogenous hormone exposure and reproductive factors:

  • Early menarche;under age of 13 years
  • Parity; nulliparous is associated with incresed risk of breast cancer
  • Age at first full term pregnancy; younger age may decrease risk of breast cancer
  • Breast feeding; decreased risk of breast cancer
  • Testostrone; increased relative risk to 2.86-3.28
  • Age at menopause;older menopausal age associated with greater risk of breast cancer

Exogenous hormone exposure

  • long term exposure> 5 years; increases chances of breast cancer
  • Time of usage;nearly menopausal age associated with development to breast cancer

Lifestyle These factors may increase risk of developing breast cancers

  • Alcohol consumption; even as 5.0 to 9.9 per day, approximately 3 to 6 drinks per week, developed with relative risk 1.15
  • Inactivity
  • Obesity; BMI:25-29.9 and BMI>30 have relative risk about 1.28
  • Previous history of radiation;at the age< 35years old
