Evaluation and Management of Benign Breast Disorders: A Practical Guide (en Inglés) - Helen A. Pass

Evaluation and Management of Benign Breast Disorders is a comprehensive, evidence-based guide to the diagnosis, risk assessment, and treatment of the full spectrum of benign breast conditions. This practical resource equips breast surgeons, surgical oncologists, breast specialists, internists, family practitioners, obstetrician-gynecologists, advanced practice providers, trainees and any clinician who cares for patients with breast disorders with the latest approaches to evaluating common and uncommon breast disorders. From congenital abnormalities and breast imaging findings to cystic lesions, fibroepithelial tumors, nipple discharge, papillary lesions, and breast pain, the book provides clear guidance for confident clinical decision-making.

Emphasizing contemporary, patient-centered care, the text explores opportunities for non-surgical management where appropriate while providing authoritative recommendations for when intervention is warranted. Dedicated chapters address breast cancer risk assessment, management of high-risk patients, the impact of exogenous hormones, atypical hyperplasias, and lobular carcinoma in situ, helping clinicians navigate increasingly complex risk-based care pathways. Special consideration is also given to challenging inflammatory and infectious conditions, including granulomatous mastitis, periductal mastitis, mammary duct ectasia, breast infections, and subareolar abscesses. Rounding out its comprehensive coverage, the book examines breast disorders associated with pregnancy and lactation, gynecomastia and male breast masses, and benign skin lesions of the breast.

Richly informed by current practice and multidisciplinary expertise, this book serves as an indispensable reference for clinicians seeking practical, state-of-the-art guidance for the evaluation and management of benign breast disease in everyday practice.
