If a woman does have the mutation, she may choose to undergo more rigorous screening or even undergo preventive (prophylactic) mastectomy to decrease her chances of developing breast cancer.[oncolink.org]
Myasthenia gravis - symptoms of pupil-sparing ocular motility disorder and ptosis may invoke consideration for ocular myasthenia gravis.[eyewiki.aao.org]
When taking tamoxifen, patients may experience weight gain, hot flashes, vaginaldryness, and discharge. Taking tamoxifen may also increase risk of serious medical issues, such as blood clots, stroke, and uterine cancer.[oncolink.org]
This breast change is not a cancer, though the name can be confusing. In LCIS, cells that look like cancer cells are growing in the lobules of the milk-producing glands of the breast, but they don’t grow through the wall of the lobules.[cancer.org]
People can be confused by this term, thinking it’s a different kind of cancer. In reality, it’s just a broader category—like calling someone from Los Angeles a Californian.[drsusanloveresearch.org]
After years of effort invested in encouraging mammography, to reverse course would cause widespread confusion and anger.[theatlantic.com]
A cancer diagnosis can be very confusing time. There are many different cancers so it is important to find out information that is relevant to you.[cancerwa.asn.au]
That's confusing to patients conditioned to treat every cancer diagnosis as an emergency, in a world that still reacts to cancer as though it's the beginning of the end and in a culture where we don't talk about death until we have to.[time.com]
Patients require a systemic workup to evaluate for metastases to other organ systems, and a multidisciplinary team including oncology, radiation oncology, and ophthalmology are necessary.[eyewiki.aao.org]
Developing the best treatment plan depends on a good, thorough pathologic evaluation as well as a complete workup of both breasts, as noted above.[medicinenet.com]
(See Workup.) Increased public awareness and improved screening have led to earlier diagnosis, at stages amenable to complete surgical resection and curative therapies.[emedicine.medscape.com]
All relevant aspects of the patient's history, treatment, and outcomes were documented. The aim was compare treatment outcomes of tubular breast cancer outcomes to that of all invasive breast cancers.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Etiology and pathogenesis of this type of lesion in the breast is uncertain. The most common sources of metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the breast are lung, esophagus, cervix, and urinary bladder.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Although the outcome of our patient population reaffirms differences between the two groups the etiology of the perceived aggressiveness of this phenotype remains undetermined.[omicsonline.org]
These data support the evidence that some breast cancers share etiologic factors with ovarian cancer.[emedicine.medscape.com]
Squamous cell carcinoma of the breast is a rare entity and as such knowledge about the pathophysiology, treatment and prognosis are still uncertain.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Preventative surgery (prophylactic mastectomy) may also prevent breast cancer. Bilateral prophylactic mastectomy is the removal of both breasts in order to prevent breast cancer.[onhealth.com]
