What Is Breast Fibrosis?
The breast is located between the superficial and deep layers of the superficial fascia. The superficial fascia extends into the breast tissue to form a cord-like lobular space, with one end connected to the pectoralis fascia and the other end connected to the skin.

- The occurrence of this disease is related to the excessive stimulation of estrogen, so it is more common in women who are sexually active at the age of 20-25 years. During pregnancy and lactation or premenopause, due to the large amount of estrogen secretion, tumors can grow rapidly; animal experiments have also confirmed that large amounts of estrogen can induce tumor formation.
- Breast fibroadenomas are more common in the upper outer quadrant, and most (about 75%) are single and few are multiple. It is characterized by painless solitary masses, which are mostly accidentally found accidentally in the description of the medical history; the masses are circular or elliptical in shape, most of which are between 1 and 5 cm in diameter, and occasionally giant fibrous adenomas, which can exceed 10 cm in diameter. The menstrual cycle had no effect on tumor size and there was no abnormal nipple discharge. The growth rate is relatively slow. Percussion: The surface of the mass is smooth, the boundaries are clear, the texture is tough, and there is no adhesion to the skin and surrounding tissues. It is easy to be pushed, and the axillary lymph nodes are not enlarged. [1]

The operation can be performed under local anesthesia, and a radial incision is made on the skin of the mass. After the tumor was revealed, the tumor was removed along with its capsule. And routinely sent pathological examination to rule out the possibility of malignant lesions.
