Description

Aim and objective: Aim of this study was to evaluate the clinicopathological profile of benign breast diseases in women. Methods: A Prospective study was conducted in the Department of General Surgery, ICARE Institute of Medical Sciences and Research & Dr. Bidhan Chandra Roy Hospital, Haldia, West Bengal, India for the period of 1 year. Patients presented with different breast related problems like lump in breast, nipple discharge, associated fever and mastalgia were admitted in surgical ward for evaluation. Results: In the present study, 120 cases were examined and analysed. Fibroadenoma formed the most common benign breast disease accounting for 50 cases (41.67%), followed by fibroadenosis in 25 cases (20.83%). Benign breast disease was commonly seen in the age group of 20-30years constituting 47.5% of all patients followed by 26.67% cases in age group of 30-40years. It is extremely uncommon in <10yrs and above 55years. Among all the benign breast diseases, left sided breast involvement was more common onstituting 62 (51.67%) cases while right breast involvement was less common constituting 45 (37.5%) patients. Bilateral involvement was seen in only 13 (10.83%) patients. Considering the pattern of benign breast diseases, fibroadenoma was the most common lesion constituting 50 (41.67%) cases followed by fibroadenosis (fibrocystic disease) constituting 25 (20.83%) cases, fibroadenoma with fibrocystic changes constituting 17 (14.17%) and breast abscess constituting 8 (6.67%) cases. Other benign breast diseases include phylloides tumour 5 (4.17%), lipomas 3 (2.5%) and 2 (1.67%)galactocele. Patients with breast lump 83.33%, patients with breast pain 35% and patients with nipple discharge 3.33%. Conclusions: The breast lesions pattern revealed by the present study provides valuable information regarding clinicopathological profile of breast lesions.
