cancer<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;seeks to raise awareness in society of the importance of research and the early diagnosis of this disease.&nbsp;Because breast cancer is&nbsp;<strong>the most common type of tumor in women<\/strong>&nbsp;since:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>1 in 8 women will have breast cancer throughout their lives.&nbsp;<\/em><\/strong><em><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure

2019\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, the&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>AECC<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;has a series of services and programs for the comprehensive care of people with breast cancer:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Information:<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;because breast cancer is a serious disease, but it can be cured if it is detected in time and lack of information is the main source of fear and anxiety<\/li><li><strong>Support and assistance:&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;psychological care&nbsp;,&nbsp;social care&nbsp;&nbsp;and&nbsp;support&nbsp;.&nbsp;We also offer advice

term.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">TYPES OF BREAST CANCER<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The breast is a gland.&nbsp;We call breast cancer the tumor originated in the cells and structures of this gland, so breast cancer is an&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>adenocarcinoma<\/strong>&nbsp;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">CARCINOMA IN SITU<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is what is called malignant cell proliferation that occurs inside the breast duct, without crossing the wall of the breast duct, that is, without invasion or infiltration of the surrounding tissue.&nbsp;Can be:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Ductal carcinoma in situ:<\/strong>Intraductal carcinoma if it is inside a duct.<\/li><li><strong>Lobular carcinoma in situ:<\/strong>If it&#8217;s inside a lobule.&nbsp;Years ago, lobular carcinoma in situ was considered a premalignant lesion, however, it is currently understood as a marker that identifies women with a higher risk of developing invasive breast cancer.&nbsp;The most appropriate term is that of lobular neoplasia.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">INVASIVE OR INFILTRATING CARCINOMA<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the name of the malignant cell proliferation that crosses the natural anatomical border of the duct or lobule, invading the surrounding tissue.&nbsp;There are basically two types of invasive breast cancer:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Ductal carcinomas:<\/strong>They originate in the cells that line the galactophores ducts (ducts where milk circulates to the nipple).&nbsp;It is the most frequent type, representing 80% of breast infiltrating cancers.<\/li><li><strong>Lobular carcinomas:<\/strong>They originate in the cells of the breast lobules, where milk is produced.&nbsp;Its incidence is much lower, than 10%.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The information about breast cancer offered on this site does not replace the medical consultation, it is intended as a
