Abstract

To asses the impact in the women life respect of the risk for breast cancer, this review examine the relation between benign breast disease like Page and Dupont classification and the risk for breast cancer.

In this, you find an analysis for fibroadenomas and radial scars, usually considered as benign breast tumors, its pathological variants, and if there are risk factors for breast cancer.

The most important conclusion, is the need to establish an individual pursuit to the patient, and the adequate explanation to the risk factor to obtain the collaboration for an early diagnosis of breast cancer.
