Aims: Cysticercosis is a zoonotic disease caused by encysted larvae of the nematode Taenia solium. It can have variable clinical presentations, neurocysticercosis being most common among them. Extraneural cysticercosis relatively rare. Among them, isolated breast extremely rare and medical literature in its entirety describes but few cases breast. They be easily mistaken for fibroadenoma or mal...

Fibroadenoma is commonest breast lump constituting about 50% of all breast pathologies in young females. About 2-4% of the fibroadenomas more than 5 cm in size or 500 gm in weight and are called giant fibroadenomas [1]. The axillary ectopic breast tissue is common in women as 95% of women are having it [2]. The clinical presentation is during lactation when this tissue gets enlarged commonly ca...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to explore and understand women's pathways to breast cancer diagnosis and factors influencing this journey. DESIGN AND SETTING Indepth interviews were conducted with clients at a tertiary level breast cancer clinic in Cape Town, South Africa. A thematic analysis was performed underpinned by the theoretical concepts of the Model of Pathways to Treatment fra...

Metastasis to the breast from an extra-mammary malignancy has been documented in literature, however cervical cancer metastasis to the breast is very rare. Thirty-eight cases of metastatic deposit to the breast from cervical cancer have been reported in literature. Though most patients present with a breast lump, it is very difficult to clinically distinguish a primary breast malignancy from a ...

titis (ILGM) is a rare chronic inflammatory disease of the breast that can clinically mimic breast carcinoma. Patients usually present with progressive onset of a breast lump. The most common clinical presentation is a firm unilateral, discrete breast mass, often associated with an inflammation of the overlying skin. Nipple retraction and even a sinus formation are present. Regional lymphadenop...

This paper gives the current overview of use of Particle Swarm Optimization techniques on breast cancer data. We analyze the breast Cancer data available from the WBC, WDBC from UCI machine learning with the aim of developing accurate prediction models for breast cancer using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) Technique. PSO is a population-based stochastic search algorithm that mimics the capab...

Objective: Elastography has the potential in differentiating benign from malignant masses. The objectives of study were to evaluate morphology breast masses with routine ultrasonography and elastography, assess role elastography conventional B-mode correlate results pathologic findings. Materials Methods: This prospective observational was conducted over a period 18 months January 2018 June 201...
