Abstract
Benign breast disease in women is a very common finding. A firm understanding of benign breast disease is important since sequential steps are necessary to distinguish lesions which impart a high risk of subsequent breast cancer from those which do not.
Purpose: To know the characteristics of benign breast diseases which were treated surgically.
Materials and Methods: This retrospective study included 111 patients with benign breast disease who were treated surgically from June 2016 to June 2018. Patients who did not required surgery were excluded. Histo-pathopathological reports were collected from pathology.
Results: Majority of patients with benign breast disease, who were treated surgically, had fibro adenoma. The disease was more common in the age group 20-29 years. The most common site was upper outer quadrant and side was right.
Conclusion: This study delineated that majority of patients with benign breast disease, who were treated surgically, had fibro adenoma.
Keywords: benign breast disease, lump, fibro adenoma.
