Transcript Breast cancer - Brionna A. Johnson

Breast cancer is a malignant tumor that’s
starts in cells of the breast. A malignant
tumor is a group of cancer cells that can
grow into (invade) surrounding tissues or
spread (metastasize) to distant areas of
the body.
About 232,340 new cases of invasive
breast cancer will be diagnosed in
women.
 About 64,640 new cases of carcinoma in
situ (CIS) will be diagnosed (CIS is noninvasive and is the earliest form of breast
cancer).
 About 39,620 women will die from breast
cancer

men can get breast cancer, too. Many
people do not realize that men have
breast tissue and that they can develop
breast cancer.
 Breast cancer is about 100 times less
common among men than among
women. The number of breast cancer
cases in men relative to the population
has been fairly stable over the last 30
years.
