Traditional surgical dressing change for breast nodules

Regarding breast nodules, the following points should be known!

According to the Survey Report of Breast Diseases in China, the mortality rate of breast cancer in China has increased by 38. 1%, and breast cancer has become the most threatening disease to women's health. Among the asymptomatic female population, patients with various breast diseases have reached 52.4%.

With the improvement of people's living standards and the enhancement of health care awareness, more and more breast nodules are accidentally discovered during physical examination. The masses know little about breast nodules that ultrasound doctors are used to. So are breast nodules breast cancer? How to treat it? Let's take a look!

What is a breast nodule? Is it breast cancer?

A breast nodule is a protrusion found in the breast, which can be benign or malignant. Common breast nodules are: hyperplasia nodules, breast cysts, fibroadenoma and breast cancer. Therefore, you don't have to see breast nodules to think you have breast cancer. In clinical work, the majority of breast solid nodules found by physical examination are benign, and only a very small part of solid nodules are breast cancer.

2. Can bean products cause breast diseases?

Soybean products contain a phytoestrogen called soybean isoflavone, which many people think will increase the risk of breast cancer. In fact, soy isoflavones can help the estrogen in the body become more stable. When the human body lacks estrogen, it can make up for the deficiency; When the human estrogen level is high, it can also reduce the estrogen level.

3. How to treat breast nodules?

Benign small breast nodules generally do not need surgical treatment, but only need half a year's follow-up review; If the nodule grows rapidly, or its size is too large to affect its appearance, or it tends to become malignant, surgery is needed. Treatment methods include traditional surgery and minimally invasive resection. Traditional surgery will leave surgical scars after surgery. At present, most hospitals use vacuum-assisted rotary cutting system for minimally invasive mastectomy, and the rotary cutter can repeatedly cut the lesions in the breast. Although the surgical scar is only about 2mm after treatment, the internal tissue damage of the breast is not small, which is easy to cause complications such as internal bleeding and infection. With the continuous development of medical technology, the advent of ultrasound-guided microwave ablation technology has successfully opened a new revolution in ultra-minimally invasive treatment of common breast diseases such as breast nodules, cysts and adenomas.

4. Microwave ablation is suitable for people.

Ultrasound imaging showed that the maximum diameter of the tumor was less than 2.5cm, and the distance between the tumor and the skin and pectoralis major was not less than 65438±0cm. The tumor is not located in the nipple areola area; Have a willingness to treat guests and beauty needs.

Although there are no clear and effective preventive measures for breast nodules and breast cancer, we can also avoid some high-risk behaviors:

l? Develop a healthy lifestyle: keep enough sleep time, quit smoking and drinking, and maintain physical and mental pleasure;

l? Proper physical exercise, reasonable diet control, keep weight in a healthy range;

l? Reduce hormone intake: Some so-called "health products" contain a lot of estrogen, so don't unnecessarily supplement hormones.

l? Regular physical examination and breast cancer screening, regular breast self-examination, if the breast is abnormal, you should see a doctor in time.
