Breast cancer in pregnancy: concurrent cesarean section, nipple-sparing mastectomy, and immediate breast reconstruction-case report.

Background: Pregnancy-associated breast cancer (PABC), with an incidence rate from 1:3,000 to 1:10,000 deliveries, is the most frequent cancer during pregnancy. PABC appropriate management must take into consideration both the maternal oncological safety and the fetal health, thus posing a challenge for the mother, the baby, and the clinicians. The treatment should adhere as closely as possible to the breast cancer (BC) guidelines.

Breast Cancer Risk and Prevention: A Step Forward.

Breast cancer (BC) is a leading topic in medical research as it is the most common cancer occurring in women worldwide; its incidence is progressively increasing in all age groups [...

Breast Lesions of Uncertain Malignant Potential (B3) and the Risk of Breast Cancer Development: A Long-Term Follow-Up Study.

Breast lesions of uncertain malignant potential (B3) are frequently diagnosed in the era of breast cancer (BC) screening and their management is controversial. They are generally removed surgically, but some international organizations and guidelines for breast research suggest follow-up care alone or, more recently, propose vacuum-assisted excision (VAE). The risk of upgrade to BC is known, but very little data exist on its role as risk factor for future BC development.

Promote Community Engagement in Participatory Research for Improving Breast Cancer Prevention: The P.I.N.K. Study Framework.

Breast cancer (BC) has overtaken lung cancer as the most common cancer in the world and the projected incidence rates show a further increase. Early detection through population screening remains the cornerstone of BC control, but a progressive change from early diagnosis only-based to a personalized preventive and risk-reducing approach is widely debated. Risk-stratification models, which also include personal lifestyle risk factors, are under evaluation, although the documentation burden to gather population-based data is relevant and traditional data collection methods show some limitations.
