Treatment of breast cancer

Breast cancer is caused by cancerous degeneration of lactocytes. Oncological diseases - a very common pathology, annually recorded more than 1 million such cases. Presented disease ranks 1st among all oncological formations in women. As a rule, the disease is registered at the age of forty-five to sixty years. There are cases when the pathology was observed in children and men.

There is still no consensus as to why breast cancer develops. It is proved that the main etiologic factor of oncological cells origin is the mutation of physiologically normal lactocytes. Carcinogenic substances cause mutation of cells, and they turn into cancerous cells. There is a huge number of various factors that contribute to the development of cancer. This is a hereditary factor; Violation of the menstrual cycle; Increased concentration of estrogens in the blood; Absence of lactation; Overheating of the mammary glands (sunbathing topless), dissatisfaction in sex; smoking; Excessive consumption of alcohol, coffee, cream and sugar; Abortions; Dysfunction of the adrenal gland, thyroid gland. Given the above, we can say that the treatment of breast cancer - a difficult, and sometimes ineffective case.

The main sign of breast cancer is the presence of a neoplasm in the tissues of the breast. The indicated formation can be found in the patient during palpation (probing) or the doctor during the examination (mammography, ultrasound, etc.). In the absence of proper treatment, the neoplasm rapidly increases in size, sprouts into the breast mesh or skin. Through blood and lymph, carcinogenic cells rapidly spread (metastasize) throughout the body (usually in the brain, bone, liver and lungs).

Treatment of breast cancer

The basis of treatment of this pathology is complex therapy, which involves the use of the following means:

- mastectomy (removal of the breast) ;

- chemo-, hormone- and radiation therapy.

At the early stages of the development of pathology, only mastectomy is possible. In the presence of metastases, one operation is indispensable. The method of treatment depends on the growth rate of the tumor, its structure, the age of the patient, the functioning of the ovaries, etc.

Organ-preserving treatment of breast cancer

This method of treatment preserves the organ during surgery. In this case, only a certain part of the mammary gland is removed . This method of treatment is necessarily "backed up" by radiotherapy.

Operative treatment of breast cancer in Germany is based on the removal (lumpectomy) of malignant neoplasm. Removal of the tumor is performed in several ways, before the operation the doctor is obliged to explain to the patient all the positive and negative aspects of each of them. Conducting operations with breast preservation in some cases is simply impossible (about 30% of cases), therefore, to reduce the size of the tumor before surgery, chemotherapy is performed, which allows the operation to be performed with breast preservation. As a rule, after a mastectomy, a plastic surgery is performed.

Treatment of breast cancer folk remedies
