Breast
cancer is the most common type of cancer among women in the world as
well as in Saudi Arabia and represents approximately 24 % of all cancers
in women.
The estimated incidence , according to information received from the National Registry of Tumors in the Kingdom about 18 cases per 100,000 women and is considered one of the lowest compared to other countries , where the America's approximately 120 cases per 100,000 in Canada, about 98 cases per 100,000 in Kuwait about 36 cases per 100,000 women, diagnosed in the UK each year about 800-950 new cases of breast tumors annually . The average age at infection in a 48 - year - old Kingdom .
In general noted that the incidence of breast cancer in the Kingdom as well as in neighboring countries are diagnosed at a late stage . Most patients are reviewing oncology clinics and they have a history of symptoms for nearly 8-9 months and then be average tumor size of 4-6 cm.
24% of the cases breast cancer Achksn in the third stage where the tumor is localized and diffuse Advanced lymph glands , and in 18% of cases, the disease has spread beyond the breast and lymph nodes to the bone , liver and lung. In about 35 % of cases have a limited deployment in the lymph nodes under the armpit , a second phase of the disease. And only 6.7 % of cases in the UK are diagnosed with the disease in the first phase , where the tumor is small in size and is not common to the lymph nodes.Based on the information recorded in the national registry of tumors , looks desperately need the following:
Raise the level of women's health education and focus on the importance of breast self-examination on a monthly basis and review doctors who specialize in the event of the emergence of any new or blocs tumors breast .
(Most breast tumors benign but needs a specialist doctor for tests radiological sampling after the clinical examination to rule out malignancies , especially with signs for the possibility of the existence of cancer : as the existence of a solid mass , changes in skin or contraction of the nipple or the presence of solid blocks under the armpit or the appearance of calcifications in the rays of the breast ).A radiological imaging of the breast after the age of thirty in order to detect cancer at an early stage before the onset of any symptoms of the patient.
There is no doubt that all these precautions increase the cure rate of the disease , especially in its early stages. Ongoing research has led the field to the discovery of cancer drugs effective in the treatment such as chemotherapy and targeted biological drugs , which led to a significant decrease in the proportion of deaths according to records tumors in America, Britain and others.It is time to raise the level of health education among women in our and دفعهن to conduct self-examination or scanning for early detection of breast tumorsMalignant and benign tumors :
Must differentiate between benign and malignant tumors (cancer).
Malignant tumors such as breast cancer is a multiplication and division of abnormal cells with the ability to spread and destroy tissue and move to neighboring members and other parts of the body, just as the susceptibility to cancer return after eradication unlike the benign tumors .
Benign tumors : be in the form of a block or bag Levy and do not have the ability to spread locally or in other parts of the body do not require chemotherapy or radiation and are often common among women .
