Brief Answer: Fibroadenoma is the most common cause of lumps Detailed Answer: Hi and thank you so much for this query. I am so sorry to hear about this breast lump that has been of great concern to you and all the inconveniences this has caused you. No woman would have stayed without being concerned. Your reaction, fears and worries and totally understandable. The most common cause of lumps in women during their reproductive yeas is fibroadenoma. The description of your lump and the various expertise reports and conclusion have not suggested any possible breast cancer. However, I am very happy that the surgeon did a biopsy to obtain tissue diagnosis. This would provide the ultimate call as to what this lump is. If I were to go with how common they are, it would most likely read fibroadenoma. In any case, I am pretty confident it would be a benign lesion and not cancer. You should not freak out because the definite cause is about to be identified. No matter what it turns out to be, we can only solve problems we know. This is the most important step and what makes the difference. I hope this addresses your query fully. Thank you so much for patronizing our services and please do feel free to ask for follow up clarifications and information if need be. I wish him the best of health. Dr. Ditah, MD.

Brief Answer: Very unlikely Detailed Answer: Hi and thanks for following up with me. The various examinations, investigations and information you have reported to me is not suggestive of cancer. The only reason why I will not entirely rule this out is the fact that cancer is considered a possibility for all breast lumps until tissue diagnosis is obtained. But for that, nothing has really suggested that at this point. I hope this helps. I wish you the best of possible outcomes as you gear up for the results next Monday. Dr. Ditah, MD.
