Those assigned male at birth do have some breast tissue behind the nipples, and therefore are able to develop breast cancer. While diagnosis and treatment for breast cancer is similar for both sexes assigned at birth, the disease overwhelmingly impacts those assigned female at birth. In fact, it’s about 100 times more likely to occur in females than males and the lifetime risk for males getting breast cancer is 1 in 833. As for your concern specifically, Reader, it may be reassuring for you to know that although male breast cancer can happen at any age, it's extremely rare for males under 18. That being said, the presence of any atypical lumps, bumps, or changes in your breast tissue could also be due to a different noncancerous condition or even just a stage of life. In any case, it’s recommended that you talk with a health care provider about what you've noticed to help you investigate further.","PeriodicalId":282392,"journal":{"name":"Revista del Nacional (Itauguá)","volume":"155 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132714186","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its risk factors are well identified and it´s one of the pathologies with more classifications throughout the history of Medicine. Objectives: to describe the clinical characteristics of breast cancer in the San Pablo Hospital (Asunción, Paraguay) the period of 2016-2017. Methodology: retrospective descriptive observational design of medical records revision of patients with histological confirmation of breast cancer from San Pablo Hospital (Asunción, Paraguay) in the period of 2016-2017. Results: 75 cases were included. The mean age was 52 ± 11 years. The most frequent histological type was the infiltrating ductal with a moderate degree of differentiation at the time of diagnosis. The clinical stage at the time of the most frequent diagnosis was stage II and the luminal biological type A was the most frequent. The treatment established in most cases were modified radical mastectomy. Conclusions: the most frequent breast cancer was infiltrating ductal, stage II. Modified radical mastectomy was the most used treatment.","PeriodicalId":282392,"journal":{"name":"Revista del Nacional (Itauguá)","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134019528","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
