Abstract:
:Breast cancer is the tumor with the highest prevalence and incidence in women. Reduction mammaplasty is one of the most common procedures performed in Brazil by the plastic surgeon, and it is not uncommon for the surgeon to find a breast tumor during the operation or afterward, when the histopathological report is received. In this study, 2488 patient files were reviewed retrospectively. All patients had undergone reduction mammaplasty at the senior author's private clinic (the Ivo Pitanguy Clinic) between January of 1957 and December of 2002. Resected breast tissue was examined histopathologically. The objective of this study was to verify the occurrence of breast carcinoma found accidentally postoperatively. The senior author's team performed all of the operations and the same pathologist performed every histopathological examination. The histopathological test results were divided into two groups: benign lesions and tumors. The highest frequency of breast pathology was benign lesions, and of them, 80.8 percent involved fibrocystic changes and fibroadiposity. The tumor group was subdivided into benign tumors and malignant tumors. Among the benign tumors, fibroadenoma was the one most common, in 2.2 percent. The frequency of malignant tumors was 0.5 percent of all patients. Most of the histopathological lesions were found in patients between 30 and 50 years of age. A reduced number of patients had no lesions (3.7 percent). Lack of a pathological investigation or a cursory or hurried examination of any mammary tissue by the pathologist may overlook important lesions. In the analysis of these statistics, the concept of normal breast tissue was questioned.
