After reassessing her condition by the transthoracic echocardiogram, dilated left ventricle and rheumatic affectation of the mitral valve with regurgitation were concluded. There was no evidence of any vegetation. [omicsonline.org]

Breast Mass
1 Introduction Breast masses in adolescence are uncommon and are mostly benign or self-limited. [journals.lww.com]
masses.[1],[4] Malignant tumors are uncommon among younger women.[5] Fibroadenoma is a form of benign breast mass. [advbiores.net]
Conclusion Fibroadenomas are one of the most common benign breast masses encountered in the adolescent population. Any breast mass can evoke anxiety in the patient. This is especially true in the adolescent population. [dovepress.com]
KEYWORDS Tubular adenoma; Breast; Breast mass. [unboundmedicine.com]
In summary we report a case of a lactating adenoma presenting as a giant breast mass. In a case of rapidly enlarging breast mass in a pregnant lady, lactating adenoma has to be considered in the differential diagnosis. REFERENCES 1. [academic.oup.com]

Keywords Breast fibro adenoma; Uterine fibroid; HACEK endocarditis Background HACEK, as an acronym, refers to a grouping of gram-negative bacilli which are Haemophilus species, Aggregatibacter species, Cardio bacterium hominis, Eikenella corrodens, and Kingella [omicsonline.org]
Treatment
Treatment of Breast Fibroadenoma With FastScan HIFU Echopulse is specially designed, manufactured and CE marked for treating breast fibroadenoma. [centerwatch.com]

In the past, surgery has conventionally been the only option available for breast fibroadenoma treatment. [breastlink.com]
Prognosis
Differential Diagnosis A fibroadenoma can be confused with: Breast cyst Breast carcinoma Phyllodes tumor Breast lymphoma Metastasis to the breast from another primary site Prognosis Prognosis of fibroadenoma is good because it is a benign mass which shrinks [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Treatment and prognosis They are benign lesions with minimal or no malignant potential. The risk of malignant transformation is extremely low and has been reported to range around 0.0125-0.3%. [radiopaedia.org]
Etiology
Etiology Causes of fibroadenoma are debatable, but professionals believe that the lesion has a hormonal etiology related to the increased sensitivity of breast tissue to the female reproductive hormone estrogen. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
(Etiology) The exact cause of development of Ductal Adenoma of Breast is currently not clearly understood. Studies have shown that such tumors may be caused by hormonal influence Certain gene mutations have also been reported in the tumors. [dovemed.com]
The pathogenesis and the etiology of the disease are still being debated. Smoking has been implicated as an etiologic factor in mammary duct ectasia [35, 36]. This association appears to be more important in young women who smoke [37]. [theoncologist.onlinelibrary.wiley.com]
Etiology Little is known about the underlying pathogenesis of pituitary tumors. [orpha.net]
[…] to view Discussion Breast masses, as one of the most common indicators of probable breast cancers, particularly in female patients, are the subject of studies that try to define new measures of screening for a faster and safer detection of underlying etiology [advbiores.net]
Epidemiology
An epidemiologic study of breast cancer and benign breast neoplasm in relation to the oral contraceptive and estrogen use. European J Cancer. 1979;15:395-405. Canny PF, Berkowitz GS, Kelsey JL. [ijsurgery.com]
Epidemiology Fibroadenoma tends to occur in early age. It is most commonly found in adolescents and less commonly found in postmenopausal women. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The available data are, even though, insufficient to assess its epidemiology. Nonetheless, HACEK endocarditis was not previously reported in young females, concomitant with uterine fibroid masses or breast fibroadenomas. [omicsonline.org]
It thus makes sense on epidemiologic grounds to lump these lesions together under the rubric “complex fibroadenoma.” However, it is not clear that these lesions are necessarily related by a common underlying cause. [nejm.org]

Pathophysiology
Genetics Mediator complex subunit 12 (MED12) gene is also important in the pathophysiology of fibroadenomas. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The pathophysiology of cognitive disorders is probably multifactorial: anatomic impact of large adenoma, overlooked or poorly compensated hormone deficits, surgical sequelae, etc. [cyberleninka.org]
Prevention
None of these preventive measures prevents 100% of all breast cancers. Even prophylactic mastectomy cannot remove all breast tissue, so some of these women still get breast cancer. Got a question for our experts? Submit it here [thechart.blogs.cnn.com]
Ductal Adenoma of Breast is difficult to prevent, because it is most likely caused by abnormal or fluctuating reproductive hormone levels. Since prevention is generally not possible, it is important to be aware of the risk factors of breast lumps. [dovemed.com]
Awareness of this may be helpful in preventing aggressive treatment. [diagnosticpathology.biomedcentral.com]
