Q

phyllodes tumor

A

Q

age <30

A

fibroadenoma

30
Q

age 30-50

A

fibrocystic mass

31
Q

age >60

A

majority of breast cancers

but cancer can happen at any age

32
Q

social hx for breast ca

A

smoking, ETOH, occupation

33
Q

family hx for breast ca

A

first degree relative - 2-3x risk increase

BRCA1 and 2 - 80% lifetime risk

endocrine disease

34
Q

estrogen window

A

menarche to menopause

35
Q

age of 1st pregnancy >35yo

A

1.5-3x increase risk of breast cancer

36
Q

GAIL model

A

risk assessment for breast cancer

age, menarche age, age 1st birth, 1st relative with breast cancer, number of biopsies, race

37
Q

patient <40yo with benign breast mass desiring excision

A

surgical biopsy

38
Q

benign breast mass >40yo

A

mammogram
ultrasound
FNA
excise if malignant - repeat 3 months if benign

39
Q

MRI of breast

A

high sensitivity
low specificity

more false positive readings and bx expenses

screening for high risk BRCA patients, dense breasts, small lesions, implants

40
Q

FNA

A

minimally invasive
can be done in office

requires skilled cytopathologist

41
Q

core needle biopsy

A

obtain tissue
ER/PR analysis

doesn’t interrupt lymphatics

42
Q

atypia on FNA or core needle bx

A

requires excision of entire lesion - to rule out malignancy

43
Q

atypical hyperplasia on biopsy

A

3-6x increased risk of later invasive cancer

44
Q

LCIS

A

tx as risk factor
15-20x increased risk of DCIS bilaterally**

excisional biopsy with clear margins

45
Q

DCIS

A

tx with lumpectomy/radiation

46
Q

most common invasive breast cancer

A

ductal

-favorable - medullary, tubular, mucinous, papillary

47
Q

lobular carcinoma of breast

A

bilateral

slightly better prognosis than ductal

48
Q

peau d’orange

A

inflammatory cancer of beast

49
Q

breast cancer staging

A

T1 - 5cm
T4 - wall fixation or skin involved

N0 - no nodes
N1 - mets to ipsilateral nodes
N2 - mets to fixed or matted axillary nodes

50
Q

stage 0 prognosis

A

Tis, N0, M0 - 95% 5 year

51
Q

stage 1 prognosis

A

T1, N0, M0 - 85% 5 year

52
Q

BI-RADS 0

A

requires additional studies

53
Q

BI-RADS 1

A

no abnormal findings

-routine screening

54
Q

BI-RADS 2

A

benign findings

-routine screening

55
Q

BIRADS 3

A

probably benign

-6 month follow up

56
Q

BIRADS 4

A

suspicious abnormality

-image guided bx

57
Q

BIRADS 5

A

highly suggestive of malignancy

-image guided bx

58
Q

mammotome biopsy

A

image guided

59
Q

radical mastectomy

A

removal of breast, pec muscles, axillary nodes

rarely used - only if invades pectoralis muscles

60
Q

modified radical mastectomy

A

remove breast, axillary nodes

61
Q

partial mastectomy

A

remove part of breast

breast ca with negative axillary nodes

62
Q

ALND

A

axillary lymph node dissection
-preferred tx if lymph node positive for cancer or patient doesn’t want to risk having two procedures

complications - numbness - lymphedema

63
Q

neoadjuvant therapy

A

chemo/rad before surgery

to down size and down stage tumors

64
Q

aromatase inhibitor

65
Q

breast cancer follow up

6-12 months

look for recurrence/mets

mammograms - yearly bilateral
