Breast nodule calcification is good or bad

Breast nodule calcification may be a good situation, but also may indicate adverse lesions, can not be simply generalized.

From a benign point of view, some coarse, scattered calcification usually indicates a greater possibility of benign lesions. This may be due to long-term chronic tissue damage or aging caused by calcium salt deposition, generally does not cause significant harm to health, just regular follow-up observation can be.

However, when breast nodules appear some characteristic calcification, may indicate adverse conditions. Such as clustering, fine pleomorphism, thin line or branched calcification, these are often associated with breast cancer. Malignant tumor cells in the growth process, may lead to local microenvironment changes, promote calcium salt deposition to form specific types of calcification. In this case, it is necessary to attach great importance to further detailed examinations, such as breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), puncture biopsy, etc., to clarify the nature of the lesion, and to formulate appropriate treatment plans according to the specific circumstances, which may include surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, etc.

After discovering calcification of breast nodules, you should seek medical attention in time and fully communicate with the doctor. The doctor will accurately evaluate and diagnose the patient according to the shape, distribution and other characteristics of calcification, combined with the patient's clinical manifestations and other examination results, so as to ensure that the patient receives timely and appropriate treatment and management.
