Non-invasive and Invasive Breast Cancer

  • Chapter
What’s New in Surgical Oncology

Abstract

There are 1 million cases of breast cancer (BC) worldwide. This statistic explains the extent to which the health sector and health policies are involved in dictating and supporting guidelines on behavior. The extent of BC results in several problems:

  • Social: BC has an impact on the family and workplace, the organization of an adequate network of centers and hospital services, as well as staff training and related costs;

  • Diagnosis: an early diagnosis is required in a large proportion of the female population;

  • Therapeutic: due to the complexity and variety of treatment;

  • Psychological: due to the overpowering impact on the female population;

  • Rehabilitation for the family and social recovery of patients;

  • Scientific: due to the possibility of carrying out research and the biological complexity of this tumor (which has already been well studied) so that research on BC can be a model for other types of cancer.
