			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img style="padding: 5px;" src="http://surgeryinfo.org/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/.pond/mastectomy.jpg.w300h300.jpg" alt="mastectomy" width="200" height="250" align="left" />Australian scientists have developed a surgical technique that could allow women suffering from <strong><a href="http://www.ami20.com/?s=breast+cancer">breast cancer</a></strong> regenerate their breasts after a mastectomy, as reported by the Institute of Microsurgery &#8216;Bernard O&#8217;Brien&#8217; of Melbourne (Australia) where he investigates the new technique.</p>
<p>The procedure, which could begin human trials within three to six months, involves inserting a breast-shaped chamber, which contains a sample of adipose tissue of women under the skin of the chest. This infiltration is connected to a blood vessel adipose tissue, allowing this to grow and fill the chamber in an estimated period of six to eight months.</p>
<p>From the center, the operations director, Dr. Phillip Marzelle, said today that it is launching a &#8220;test prototype&#8221; in the coming months that may be implemented through a &#8220;proof of principle&#8221; with five or six women, so you can see that the body can regenerate its own supply of fat in the chest.</p>
<p>In addition, plans to build within two years a camera biodegradable dissolved when full. &#8220;We have proven in several animal models, so we have made sufficient preclinical testing to be sure now to give way to human trials,&#8221; he said.<span id="more-60"></span></p>
<p>The development of the technique depends on the body&#8217;s own behavior and how it is able to fill internal voids, but &#8220;also may inject a gel-like substance to stimulate the growth of adipose tissue. &#8220;Nature abhors a vacuum, so that the camera itself, because it is empty, has to be completed by the body,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>Women who participate in the tests must have undergone complete or partial mastectomy. The test does not seek to regenerate a whole breast, but to promote growth of adipose tissue in the affected area to demonstrate that the procedure is feasible.</p>
<p>According Marzelle the regenerative procedure could offer women an alternative to traditional breast reconstruction and implants after a mastectomy, but also could help repair other damaged areas of the body. &#8220;We hope to move to other organs using the same principle: a camera that protects and contains cells as they grow and resume their normal function,&#8221; he said.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft" src="http://www.virtualmedicalcentre.com/uploads/VMC/TreatmentImages/1247_Breast_Mid.jpg" alt="" width="308" height="225" />Most <a href="http://www.ami20.com/">tumors </a>that occur in the<a href="http://www.ami20.com/"> breast</a> are benign, not cancerous, and are due to <a href="http://www.ami20.com/">fibrocystic formations</a>. The cyst is a fluid-filled sac and fibrosis is an abnormal development of connective tissue. Fibrosis does not increase the risk of developing a tumor and does not require special treatment. The cysts, if large, can be painful. Removing the fluid with a needle usually take away the pain. The presence of one or more cysts does not favor the occurrence of malignant tumors.</p>
<p>Benign tumors are related mostly to genetic factors. Symptoms that occur are pain and inflammation but not spread to the rest of the body and are not dangerous. In malignant tumors, there are several types depending on the location of the breast where there is abnormal growth of cells and depending on their stage.</p>
<p>Tumors may be localized or have spread through the blood vessels or through lymph vessels, and have led to metastasize, a cancer in an organ distant to the original. Of all cases of breast cancer, only 7-10% of them start metastases.</p>
<p>The breast cancers are classified as:<br />
<strong>Ductal carcinoma in situ </strong>in the cells of the lining of the breast ducts. It is a very localized cancer that has not spread to other areas or has metastasized. That is why this disease &#8216;premalignant&#8217; can be removed easily. The cure rate close to 100%. This type of tumor can be detected through mammography.</p>
<p><strong>Infiltrating ductal carcinoma</strong> (or invasive) is the one that begins in the milk duct but manages to pass through and adipose tissue of the breast and then can spread to other parts of the body. It is the most common breast cancers, occurs in 80% of cases.</p>
<p><strong>Lobular carcinoma in situ arises</strong> from the mammary glands (or lobes) and, although not a true cancer increases the risk that women can develop a cátumor in the future. Usually occurs before menopause. Once detected, it is important that women have a mammogram every year and control several clinical examinations to monitor the possible development of cancer.</p>
<p><strong>Infiltrating lobular carcinoma</strong> (or invasive) begins in the mammary glands but it can spread and destroy other tissues. Between 10% and 15% of breast tumors are of this type. This carcinoma is more difficult to detect through mammography.</p>
<p><strong>The inflammatory cancer</strong> is a rare cancer, accounting for only 1% of all breast cancers. It is aggressive and fast growing. Ago breast skin reddening and increasing its temperature. The appearance of the skin becomes thick and hollow, like an orange, and can appear wrinkles and bumps. These symptoms are due to the blockade produced by cancer cells on the lymph vessels.</p>

<a href="http://www.ami20.com/" mce_href="http://www.ami20.com/">The breasts</a> are composed of fat, connective and glandular. In this tissue are the milk producing glands which are born 15 or 20 mammary ducts, to carry milk to the nipple, surrounded by the areola. These lobules and ducts are located in the stroma, adipose tissue, which are also blood vessels and lymphatics. The breast tissues are connected also with a group of lymph nodes, located in the armpit. These nodes are key to the diagnosis of breast cancer, since cancer cells spread to other parts of the body through the lymphatic system. When speaking of sentinel node refers precisely to the node nearest to the place where cancer is located.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ami20.com/" mce_href="http://www.ami20.com/"><b>Breast cancer</b></a> is abnormal and disordered growth of cells in this tissue. The breast consists of a series of mammary glands that produce milk after birth, and which are called lobes and lobules. The lobes are connected by pipes, ducts, which are the leading milk to the nipple during lactation, to feed the baby. The glands (or lobes) and the ducts are embedded in adipose tissue and connective tissue, which, together with the lymphoid tissue, forming the breast. As a retaining wall, pectoral muscle acts which lies between the ribs and breast. The skin covers and protects the entire breast structure.</p>
<p>The lymphatic system consists of containers and vessels or tubes that contain and carry the lymph, a colorless liquid consisting of white blood cells, mostly lymphocytes. These cells recognize any substance foreign to the body and release substances that destroy the offending agent.</p>
