Overview
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- The incidence rate of benign breast disease is not clear due to the fact that breast lumps do not consider as life threatening problems[1]
- Women who receive medical therapies or surgeries mostly come into account
- Particular detection rate is not known and estimated
Prevalence
- The prevalence of benign breast disease is approximately 68% among all breast diseases[2]
- Approximately 605 of benign breast diseases occur in left breast and 40% in the right breast
- 100% of definite palpable lumps are characteristics of fibroadenoma,phyllodes tumor and adenomyoepithelioma
- 64% of lumps located in upper outer quadrant,26% of lumps in lower outer quadrant, 10% of lumps in upper inner quadrant
Case-fatality rate/Mortality rate
- In [year], the incidence of [disease name] is approximately [number range] per 100,000 individuals with a case-fatality rate/mortality rate of [number range]%.
- The case-fatality rate/mortality rate of [disease name] is approximately [number range].
Age
- Patients of all age groups may develop [disease name].
- The incidence of [disease name] increases with age; the median age at diagnosis is [#] years.
- [Disease name] commonly affects individuals younger than/older than [number of years] years of age.
- [Chronic disease name] is usually first diagnosed among [age group].
- [Acute disease name] commonly affects [age group].
Race
- There is no racial predilection to benign breast disease
- [Disease name] usually affects individuals of the [race 1] race. [Race 2] individuals are less likely to develop [disease name].
Gender
- [Disease name] affects men and women equally.
- [Gender 1] are more commonly affected by [disease name] than [gender 2]. The [gender 1] to [gender 2] ratio is approximately [number > 1] to 1.
