Overview

If benign breast lumps left untreated, those proved to be benign both by clinical examination and cytological diagnosis, do not become malignant and 49% of benign breast lumps resolve by time mostly after 2 years [1].

Benign breast lumps should approved to be benign both clinically and cytologicaly. Because some of breast lumps which thought to be benign ones can turn to be malignant by cytological results [1]

breast lumps which approved to be benign both clinically and cytologicaly in women under 35 years can resolve over time if do not excised [1]

Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis

Natural History

  • The symptoms of (disease name) usually develop in the first/ second/ third decade of life, and start with symptoms such as ___.
  • The symptoms of (disease name) typically develop ___ years after exposure to ___.
  • If left untreated, [#]% of patients with [disease name] may progress to develop [manifestation 1], [manifestation 2], and [manifestation 3].

Complications

  • Common complications of [disease name] include:
    • [Complication 1]
    • [Complication 2]
    • [Complication 3]

Prognosis

  • Prognosis is generally excellent/good/poor, and the 1/5/10-year mortality/survival rate of patients with [disease name] is approximately [--]%.
  • Depending on the extent of the [tumor/disease progression] at the time of diagnosis, the prognosis may vary. However, the prognosis is generally regarded as poor/good/excellent.
  • The presence of [characteristic of disease] is associated with a particularly [good/poor] prognosis among patients with [disease/malignancy].
  • [Subtype of disease/malignancy] is associated with the most favorable prognosis.
  • The prognosis varies with the [characteristic] of tumor; [subtype of disease/malignancy] have the most favorable prognosis.
