Objectives for Disorders of the Breast
Describe the symptoms and physical examination findings of benign or malignant conditions of the breast
Demonstrate the performance of a clinical breast examination
Discuss the steps in evaluation of common breast complaints: mastalgia, mass, nipple discharge
Discuss the initial management options for benign and malignant conditions of the breast

Primarily adipose tissue, glandular tissue, and suspensory ligaments
Composed of 15-25 radially arranged lobes of parenchyma, each associated with a major lactiferous duct
Each major duct extends from the nipple to terminate in a “terminal duct-lobular unit” via branching ducts of diminishing caliber

Evaluation: Physical Exam
Use pads of the index, third, and fourth fingers (inset) make small circular motions
Make three circles with the finger pads, increasing the level of pressure (subcutaneous, mid-level, and down to the chest wall) with each circle

Bottom Line Concepts It is important to evaluate breast complaints thoroughly to ensure that breast
cancers, as well as benign breast lesions, are diagnosed and treated promptly.
Evaluation of a woman presenting with a breast complaints requires careful assessment of symptoms and risk factors for developing breast cancer.
The clinical breast exam include inspection and palpation of the breast tissue, chest wall, and regional lymph nodes. Documentation should included both positive and negative findings.
Women with breast problems can present with any combination of symptoms including breast mass or thickening, breast pain, nipple discharge, or skin changes.
Typically, women presenting with a suspicious breast mass who are > 30 yrs should receive a diagnostic mammogram, whereas women younger than 30 should receive a diagnostic ultrasound.
Negative imaging should not stop further investigation is a suspicious lump is felt on clinical exam.
Masses that are solid on ultrasound imaging require biopsy to exclude cancer and provide a histological diagnosis.
