    Invasive Ductal Carcinoma of Breast (NOS) is mostly observed in women after the age of 40 years The signs and symptoms of Invasive Ductal Carcinoma of Breast (NOS) include lump in the breast, swelling or skin thickening around the region of the lump, [dovemed.com]

    It’s called inflammatory breast cancer because the main warning signs are swelling (inflammation) and redness of the breast. [ww5.komen.org]

    Introduction Invasive ductal carcinoma is the most common type of breast cancer Commonly in mid 30s to late 50s Forms solid tumor Presentation Symptoms asymptomatic breast lump nipple discharge most often presents in upper/outer quadrant Physical exam [step2.medbullets.com]

    In many cases, ductal carcinoma is asymptomatic, and detected as abnormal results on mammography. When symptoms occur, a painless, enlarging mass that does not fluctuate with the menstrual period may be felt. [en.wikipedia.org]

    Signs and symptoms Early breast cancers may be asymptomatic, and pain and discomfort are typically not present. [emedicine.medscape.com]

    Abstract We report a case of a 71-year-old female with a palpable breast mass. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    Confusion happened long ago, and we are stuck with it. Both names mean exactly the same thing. This page focuses on understanding the histopathology about invasive ductal carcinoma. [breast-cancer.ca]

    We are totally confused as to what we should do... Please share your experiences… read more posted about 1 month ago I also wish I had found out about this prior to starting chemo. [mybcteam.com]

    Various leading-edge techniques are used to analyze the exact genetics and biology of these confused cancers to find out if the tumor is more similar to carcinoma or sarcoma, since these two types of cancer have very different treatments. [mskcc.org]

Workup

(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]

Treatment

This literature review was structured to identify and understand both the positive and negative QOL factors throughout breast cancer treatment, as well as post breast cancer treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

These data support the evidence that some breast cancers share etiologic factors with ovarian cancer. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Epidemiology

MATERIALS AND METHODS: With accession to the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Result (SEER) database, a total of 260,596 patients met the eligibility criteria. Clinicopathological characteristics were compared between groups using Chi-square test. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Pathophysiology

Pathophysiology The current understanding of breast cancer etiopathogenesis is that invasive cancers arise through a series of molecular alterations at the cell level. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Prevention

[…] past, as well as continued research into how to better prevent, detect, and treat the disease. [web.archive.org]

Since this condition is rarely reported, the correlated risk factors are worthy of our attention and the strategy for prevention is highlighted. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Though not considered hormone therapy, Herceptin is another drug that helps prevent cancer recurrence. Called a biologic, Herceptin attaches itself to cancer cells and prevents them from receiving growth signals. [healthcentral.com]

Both drugs have potential side effects; including being at a higher risk for blood clots Preventative mastectomy: Prophylactic mastectomy, a procedure to surgically remove healthy breasts, is another possible preventative option for women, at a high risk [dovemed.com]
