What You Really Need to Know About Breast CancerWritten by Larry Denton
Breast cancer is most common type of cancer among women in United States (other than skin cancer). Each year, in United States alone, approximately 220,000 women are told they have breast cancer. Upon hearing this unexpected and overwhelming news, a woman is faced with having to make treatment choices within a very short period of time. While curable if detected early, breast cancer is leading cause of death for women ages 35 to 54. Cancer is a group of more than 100 different diseases. Cancer occurs when, for unknown reasons, cells become abnormal and multiply without control or order. All parts of body are made up of cells that normally divide to produce more cells only when body needs them. When cancer occurs, cells keep dividing even when new cells are not needed. There are several types of breast cancer. The most common is ductal carcinoma, which begins in lining of milk ducts within breast. Another type, lobular carcinoma, begins in lobules where breast milk is produced. If a cancerous tumor invades nearby tissue, it is called invasive cancer. Cancer cells may spread beyond breast to other lymph nodes, or bones, liver or lungs. When breast cancer spreads, it is called metastatic breast cancer even though it is found in another part of body. For example, breast cancer that has spread to liver is called metastatic breast cancer, not liver cancer. Doctors can not always explain why one person gets cancer and another does not. Medical researchers are, however, learning about what happens inside cells that may cause cancer. They have identified changes in certain genes within breast cells that can be linked to a higher risk for breast cancer. Genetic changes may be inherited from a parent or may accumulate throughout a person's lifetime. Breast cancer usually begins with a single cell that transforms from normal to malignant over a period of time. Presently, however, no one can predict exactly when cancer will occur or how it will progress. Every woman has some chance of developing breast cancer during her lifetime. As women get older, those chances increase. Overall, a woman's chance of being diagnosed with breast cancer is 1 out of 8. Even though breast cancer is more common in older women, it also occurs in younger women and even in a small number of men (1,300 cases per year in U.S.).
