Incidence of benign breast disorders presenting to surgery outpatient department in western Rajasthan – A prospective study of 100 cases
Journal Title: Medpulse International Journal of Surgery - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Breast disorders are the most common disorders in females, with worldwide distribution, sparing no race or country. Benign breast conditions have further been compounded because of confusing terminology, inadequate classifications and poor correlation between clinical, radiological and pathological features. There is now an increasing interest in benign breast disorders, as the patient has become more aware of their problems, the investigations required and the treatment available for their symptoms. This has led to a more precise understanding of the clinical pictures associated with individual elements and the histological changes of cyclical nodularity are increasingly recognised as lying within the range of histological appearance in the normal breast. Spectrum of breast problems in India is different from that in the western world. Lactational breast mastitis abscesses and granulomatous lesions are more frequent in India. The purpose of present work is to study the profile of benign breast disorders in Indian patients.
