Description
Background: Benign breast diseases (BBD) can occur at any age during the life span of a female. The breast is a dynamic organ that undergoes cyclic changes throughout a woman’s reproductive life.
Method: 50 (fifty) female adults aged between 20 to 60 years with BBD were studied. Routine blood examinations, radiological investigations (USG/mammography), and pathological investigations (FNAC/HPE discharges) were also carried out if necessary.
Results: 44 (88%) breast abscesses were observed from menarche to menopause, 4 (8%) in lactating mothers, 2 (4%) in post-menopausal women, 5 (10%) breast abscesses, 1 (2%) cold abscesses, and 2 (4%) cystic mastalgia. 16 (32%) fibro-adenomas, 3 (6%) fibro-adenosis, 12 (24%) mastaliga, and 1 (2%) tubercular lesion were observed.
Conclusion: It is concluded that BBD can be managed with medication, and in resistant cases, surgery intervention is required. In certain cases, the clinician has to wait and watch the prognosis of BBD.
Key words: benign breast diseases (BBD), menopause, non-malignant, lactation, HPE (histopathological evaluation)
Abstract (English)
Background: Benign breast diseases (BBD) can occur at any age during the life span of a female. The breast is a dynamic organ that undergoes cyclic changes throughout a woman’s reproductive life.

Results: 44 (88%) breast abscesses were observed from menarche to menopause, 4 (8%) in lactating mothers, 2 (4%) in post-menopausal women, 5 (10%) breast abscesses, 1 (2%) cold abscesses, and 2 (4%) cystic mastalgia. 16 (32%) fibro-adenomas, 3 (6%) fibro-adenosis, 12 (24%) mastaliga, and 1 (2%) tubercular lesion were observed.
Conclusion: It is concluded that BBD can be managed with medication, and in resistant cases, surgery intervention is required. In certain cases, the clinician has to wait and watch the prognosis of BBD.
