Overview

Due to public awareness of breast cancer, breast diseases are showing a rising trend worldwide. Benign or malignant lesions in the breast are the two most important terms to know for understanding breast injuries. The word ‘lesion’ comes from a Latin word 'Laesio' which means ‘attack or injury’. Lesions occur due to any disease or injury. They are an abnormal change in a tissue or organ. Benign breast lesions grow in non-cancerous areas where breast cells grow abnormally and rapidly. These cells form lumps but do not lead to cancer. They occur in a vast majority in the breast but are often neglected because they are not as dangerous as malignant lesions. These types of lesions do not spread but should be removed according to their size and location. They are also removed due to their abnormal appearance. Malignant lesions are cancerous in nature and are threatening for the health after a biopsy. They are characterized by progressive and uncontrolled growth. These type of lesions must be removed immediately by a surgery.
