Understanding breast cancer

(MS) – Many people might be surprised to learn of breast cancer’s prevalence. In the United States alone, breast cancer incidence in women is roughly 13 percent. In fact, among women in the United States, breast cancer rates are higher than those of any cancer besides lung cancer. With such staggering ďŹ gures, it’s important for women and men (who also can suffer from breast cancer) to gain a greater understanding of this deadly disease. What is breast cancer? Breast cancer is an uncontrolled growth of breast cells. Any type of cancer is the result of mutations in genes that are responsible for regulating the growth of cells and keeping them healthy. In a healthy body, the cells replace themselves in an orderly fashion, as healthy new cells take over while old ones die. When mutations occur, changed cells gain the ability to keep dividing without control or order, producing more similar cells and forming a tumor. PAGE 2A>
