Presentation
Written informed consent was obtained from the patient for the present study. [spandidos-publications.com]
Mean duration before presentation for the first and second tumours were 261 and 111days respectively. One patient has survived for 2 years thus far. Conclusion: The incidence of BBC was 4.26%. [ajol.info]
In this study, we present a population based comparison of tumor characteristics and survival between invasive unilateral and bilateral breast cancer. [cancerres.aacrjournals.org]

In the present study, the most common histology was an invasive ductal carcinoma, present in 66 patients (94%). Medullary carcinoma was seen in 2 tumors (3%) and poorly differentiated carcinoma in another 2 tumors (3%). [ijmpo.org]

Anemia
The patient is a 51-year-old Caucasian woman with a history of chronic anemia (treated with oral iron supplements) who had also undergone cholecystectomy. She reported no family history of breast cancer or any genetic alterations. [elsevier.es]
-
Lymphedema
Lymphedema is extremely troublesome complication which is best prevented than managed. To decrease the incidence of lymphedema we recommend performing SLNB in clinically node negative patients. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Abdominal Pain
All patients with gastric metastases presented non-specific gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. For all cases, a gastric endoscopy was undergone at clinical presumption. [jgo.amegroups.com]

A subset of study participants who consented to 'future contact' in the GWA Study (and those in the 'parent' study from selected sites) will be included in an analysis of radiation-related heart disease and related conditions. [clinicaltrials.gov]

Workup
Workup consisted of bilateral diagnostic mammogram and ultrasound (US); both showed a right breast mass with normal left breast. [casereports.bmj.com]
Staging workup with positron emission tomography (PET)/CT confirmed the right breast lesion, with a maximum standardized uptake value (SUV) of 12, and multiple loci of right axillary nodal involvement, with an SUV of 4. [cancernetwork.com]
Metastatic workup was negative. She underwent bilateral modified radical mastectomy. [amhsjournal.org]
Colonoscopy
-
Polyps
During ERCP, numerous duodenal polyps were found as well as a choledochal calculus, which was extracted. Several gastric and duodenal polyps were removed by upper gastrointestinal (UGI) endoscopy ( Fig. 1 ). [elsevier.es]
Treatment
These patients require individualized treatment planning based on the tumor factors and treatment factors of the index lesion. Optimal results can be obtained by using a logical multimodality treatment approach for BBC. [breast-cancer-research.biomedcentral.com]

Prognosis
This aggressive approach was employed to treat what was once thought to be a disease with a worse prognosis and outcome. [cambridge.org]
Using data from nationwide Danish clinical databases, this cohort study investigated whether the inferior prognosis could be explained by SBBC patients having a more aggressive disease, or whether the prognosis could be explained by the fact that they [nature.com]
Meanwhile, data regarding prognosis of MBBC vs UBC was very sparse. [onlinelibrary.wiley.com]
In patients with synchronous BBC, the receptor status of tumors has similar influence on the prognosis of survival. [exp-oncology.com.ua]
Women previously treated for ipsilateral breast cancer have increased risk of developing contalateral breast cancer (CBC), the chance of which increases with longer period of survival and is associated with worse prognosis. [ajol.info]
Etiology
The etiology of bilateral breast cancer is uncertain, but most evidence supports independent tumors and not metastasis spread from one of the primary tumors. [cambridge.org]
The goal of both studies is to examine the interaction of radiation exposure and genetic susceptibility factors in the etiology of breast cancer. [clinicaltrials.gov]
The etiology of bilateral breast cancer is uncertain and prognosis in these cases once thought to be poor but recent data suggest a similar survival compared to unilateral disease. [cancerjournal.net]
Over the last decades the morbidity of bilateral breast cancer (BBC) has increased [1–4], that is explained by influence of etiological factors, increase of morbidity of unilateral breast cancer and improvement of opportunities of diagnostics of contralateral [exp-oncology.com.ua]
Etiology of bilateral breast carcinomas is not well understood; however, it appears that familial link is more likely with metachronous bilateral breast carcinomas than with unilateral and with synchronous bilateral breast carcinomas. [ijabmr.org]

The aim of this study was to describe the epidemiological profile, the clinicopathological and therapeutic features of bilateral breast cancer and to evaluate their prognosis and survival. [oncologypro.esmo.org]

Prevention
The rationale behind bilateral surgery is to prevent a second primary breast cancer and thereby to avoid the resultant therapy and eliminate the risk of death from contralateral breast cancer. [semanticscholar.org]

Also, meticulous RT planning techniques can prevent radiation induced damage to lymphatics in axilla and decrease lymphedema. The choice of adjuvant therapy is based on higher risk tumour. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
