Fibroadenema or malignant one

Posted by ghadataher @ghadataher, Apr 15 7:37am

My daughter 18 years has been diagnosed as Birad 3 and iam really scared to wait ,also afraid to face it by undergoing biopsy

The lump is tiny, it has slight irregularities as well as tall than wider description that what made it suspicious

Any one passed this and the result turned to be benign one

Thanks

@ghadataher, I can imagine you and your daughter are very worried to have found a lump.
Here's more information from Mayo Clinic:
- Fibroadenoma https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/fibroadenoma/symptoms-causes/syc-20352752

Members like @trixie1313 @danielle0313 @cindylb @jane88c @smaac001 also have experience with fibroadenomas and can share their experiences.

I think you'll find this related discussion helpful:

@ghadataher, this is easy for me to say, but don't allow fear to paralyze you. If your daughter's doctor recommends further investigation and a biopsy, then you'll have more information and know what you are facing. Has a biopsy been scheduled?

Hello
My doctor recommended 3 months follow up
Iam just curious about the Birad system
What are the factors that make the radiologist choose Birad 3
And Iam most worried about orientation of the lump
Is it common that Fibroadenoma always parallel
I am anxious to know if such description turns out to be benign even though it is not a typical Fibroadenoma

Thanks a lot for help

@ghadataher, you might find this explanation about Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System or BI-RADS from the American Cancer Society helpful.
– What is a BI-RADS assessment category? https://www.cancer.org/cancer/breast-cancer/screening-tests-and-early-detection/mammograms/understanding-your-mammogram-report.html
