Jessie J shared the Bombshell news that had breast cancer on Instagram on Tuesday, saying -the fans who were trapped “early”, but was planning to “disappear a little” while recovering from surgery.
“I am highlighting the word” early. “
What exactly is the “price” singer? A specialist spoke to the publication of what the patient can expect when he is diagnosed with breast cancer in phase 0 or phase 1.
What are breast cancer of stage 0 and stage 1?
Stage 0 cancer means that there are abnormal cells that look like cancer cells, but they have not spread beyond where they originated. In breast cancer, this means that they are inside the milk duct.
“A diagnosis of stage 0 only means that cancer is inside the milk duct, but sometimes it can be extended by a large part of the chest,” Dr. Cindy Cen told Post, a Northwell Health Cancer Institute’s Northwell Mama Surgical Oncologist.
In the meantime, phase 1 is the first stage of “invasive” breast cancer, that is, it has spread. However, it is still an initial phase, because propagation is limited to the surrounding area or the lymph nodes in a small area.
How breast cancer is confirmed
After a kind of screening, whether a mammogram, sonogram or magnetic resonance imaging, breast cancer with a needle biopsy is confirmed.
“This needle biopsy provides us with information on where the cancer comes from, whether the breast duct or the lobe, and tests in the tissue can tell us what the profile of the tumor marker is,” said CEN.
This will help determine the treatment plan.
How is precocious breast cancer treated?
“Surgery is usually the first step, especially for early phase cancers,” Cen continued. “The results of the surgery will confirm the size, the participation of the lymph nodes and, finally, the staging.”
The operation will decide which cancer stage is.
There are two main surgical options:
- Lumpectomy: Also called partial mastectomy, it is to eliminate the cancer portion of the chest.
- Mastectomy: This removes the entire chest and can be done on one or both sides.
“Mastectomies can be done for stage 0 or 1 depending on the extension of the disease and/or the patient’s preference,” said Cen.
“A nipple focus can be made based on the patient’s anatomy and where the cancer on the chest is.”
“A mastectomy would be the best option to remove a large part of the chest instead of a lumpectomy.”
Do people with early phase breast cancer need chemo or radiation?
“Chemotherapy would never be offered at stage 0, but potentially for a stage 1 depending on the markers of the tumor of cancer or other risk factors,” said CEN, emphasizing that it would be determined after surgery.
“If chemotherapy is offered, surgery usually follows and radiation is then.
“Radiation is offered based on the type of surgery performed. If the patient had a lumpectomy, radiation is necessary to protect the remaining chest. If the patient suffers from mastectomy, radiation is only required in certain situations, usually when cancers are more advanced.”
On Instagram, Jessie J shared that he would be able to maintain his “nipples”, so he seems to be his experience with the typical course of action in the initial phase cancer.
“They also don’t get massive breasts. Or I’m? No, no … I have to stop joking,” he wrote.
