Breast cancer is a malignant tumor arising
from epithelial cells of breast whose genes are induced by various carcinogens,
causing mutation thus leads to cell proliferation being out of control and
exceeding the limits of self-repair.
A woman has 10% of possibility to develop
breast cancer in her whole life, second only to cervical cancer. This risk
increases with aging, especially the menopausal women between age of 40~60. The
real causes of breast cancer are not yet fully known although a number of risk
factors have been identified, such as family history of breast cancer, menarche
at earlier age and so on. But what so encouraging is that the advanced medical
facilities and anticancer techniques from Modern Cancer Hospital Guangzhou are
helping more and more women do breast cancer screening and treatment.
