Overview
Breast lumps must be differentiated from other diseases such as malignancy, cysts, inflammation and non-inflammatory solid lumps.
Breast symptoms such as nipple discharge and mastalgia require assessment as well [1].
Differentiating Breast lumps from other Diseases
Differential diagnosis of breast lumps include: [1]
- Malignancy or breast cancer
- Associated with following factors[2]:
- Geographical area
- Age
- Ethnicity
- Positive family history
- Pathology results such as:
- Atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH)
- Atypical lobular hyperplasia (ALH)
- Lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS)
- Previous history of radiotherapy
- Associated with following factors[2]:
- Inflammatory lumps:[3][4]
- Associated to personal habit and disease pattern:
- Infective lumps
- Non-infective lumps such as chronic granulomatous infection
- Associated to personal habit and disease pattern:
- Solid non-inflammatory lumps [5] [6]
- Related to age, geographical area and ethnicity
- Mostly fibroadenomas in women aged 20-30 years
- Phyllodes tumor are prevalent in various centers, racial groups in different frequencies
- Cysts[7]
- Related to age and usage of hormonal replacement therapy
- Symptomatic cysts are often seen in women age 30 years to early 50 years
- If menopausaed women may be present due to hormone replacement therapy (HRT)
| Benign | Palpable breast masses in women between 20 to 50 years old[8]The most common types of benign breast lumps are[9]:
|
|---|---|
| Malignant | The most common types are infiltrating ductal breast carcinoma, infiltrating lobular breast carcinoma, mixed of ductal and lobular carcinoma and usually present as a hard mass in breast[10] |
