What is Hamartoma breast?
Hamartoma breast, also known as fibroadnedolipom, is a solid, benign mass that is formed in the soft tissue of the breast. In young women who are often diagnosed in Hamartoma, which remains unchanged, it often requires regular monitoring, but without treatment. If Hamartoma changes the shape or increases the size, biopsy and surgical removal of matter can be performed. Rarely Hamartoma breast leads to the development of breast cancer, but in some women the presence of fibroadenolipoma may increase the chance of breast cancer later in life.
There is no known reason for the development of breast hamartoma. Composed of connective and gland tissues, it was argued that hormones contribute to the formation of fibroadenolipoma. The hormonal connection is further supported by the frequency of the diagnosis of breast hamartomas, which occur in women of reproductive age.
The solid mass that forms inside the breast tissue is palpivable and can be easily moved and has a clear shape. Although many of them do not cause pain if HamartomaIt grows large enough, can compress the surrounding tissues or nerves and cause pain. Weights that measure up to 0.7 inches (about 2 cm) are considered normal and measure 2 inches (about 5 cm) or more are classified as extremely large. Women with Hamartoma breast that are pregnant or breastfeeding
There are several tests that can be administered to evaluate breast hamartoma. Usually, the doctor will initially ask a number of questions, for example, when the lump first appeared and what types of symptoms a woman could experience, and perform a clinical breast test to check the lump and determine if there were other abnormalities. Display tests such as ultrasound and mammography can be served to create a clear picture of the location, size and shape of the breast hamartom. In addition, a fine lamb and a needle core biopsy can also be performed.
Aspirations of a fine sting is a diagnostic test used to determine the density of the mass.During the procedure, the needle is inserted into the mass to pull out the liquid; If no liquid is withdrawn, the weight is determined as solid. For further testing, small cell collection may also be obtained to eliminate the presence of cancer. Biopsy of the needle core involves the use of large needles to collect tissue samples from matter that are sent to the laboratory for analysis. Because these tumors are made of several types of cells, often the only way to definitely diagnose the lump because Hamartoma breast is after removal.
Surgical removal of breast hamartoma is often recommended when clinical and diagnostic results are abnormal. Women whose breasts have been changed because of matter or who is unpleasant to leave Hamartoma in place that the pile of surgically removes. It is important that women discuss the risks associated with lumectomy with their doctor before the decision for surgery. In some cases, the removal of fibroadenolipoma may lead to disfiguredThe breast and the formation of a scar tissue.
excision biopsy, also known as lumectomy, is an invasive procedure that involves removing fibroadenellipoma and part of the surrounding tissue; All this is sent to the analysis laboratory. Once the weight is removed, it is possible that another fibroadenolipom is formed in place, which may later require further lumectomy. Women who do not have a pile of surgically removed should continue to be conscientious in terms of regular testing to monitor matter in terms of any changes that may occur.
