Breast Cancer
OVERVIEW
UNDERSTANDING YOUR DIAGNOSIS
Breast cancer includes a wide range of cancers of the breast. The most common type begins in the lining of the ducts and is called ductal carcinoma.

It is important to remember that a lump or other changes in the breast, or an abnormal area on a mammogram, may be caused by cancer or by other, less serious problems.

DECIDING ON TREATMENT
AFTER BREAST SURGERY
Although a diagnosis of breast cancer may seem overwhelming, a variety of effective treatments is available. Your doctor will help determine which treatment is appropriate for you.
Learn more
How long you stay in the hospital will depend mostly upon your overall health and the type of surgery you had. Your doctors and nurses will explain the side effects you can expect with each form of treatment.
