Abstract

Breast cancer is a type of cancer that springs up from breast tissue, most generally from the privileged line of milk ducts or the lobules that supply milk from the ducts. There are two main types of breast cancer situ and invasive. situ carcinoma includes lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS) and ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). Invasive carcinoma includes invasive lobular carcinoma (ILS) and invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC). Tumors that form in breast cancer are also of two types Benign and Malignant tumors. Benign tumors are well-differentiated; structure may be typical of tissue of origin. Metastasis is absent in it. Malignant Tumors have lack differentiation; the structure is mostly atypical whereas Metastasis is present. The most frequent symptoms found in women are breast pain, nipple discharge, and a palpable mass. Women having such problems have benign breast disease. Nipple discharge is the pronominal of breast cancer. The greatest incidence, boost level disease presentation, low endures rates have been found in Pakistan. Increased prevalence has a great impact on the economic status of Pakistan. It is reported that women have aged 50 years and older were extra liable to build up breast cancer than women with age less than 50 years. Fibroadenoma is the most frequent benign breast lesion
