RESEARCH PROGRAM
The Westmead Breast Cancer Institute (BCI) research program supports collaborative research and currently has partnerships with clinical and research institutions both nationally and internationally. NIPPLE DISCHARGE FACT SHEET Nipple discharge is the release of fluid from the nipple. It is a very common breast symptom and in most cases is part of the normal function of the breast rather than being caused by a problem. Nipple discharge alone (without a lump or other nipple change) is a very uncommon symptom of breast cancer. There are normally 15–20 milk ducts MANAGING YOUR RISK OF BREAST AND OVARIAN CANCER For women with a BRCA2 gene fault. the lifetime risk of breast cancer is between 40% and 80%. the lifetime risk of ovarian and fallopian tube cancer is between 10% and 20%. People who carry these gene faults may also be at increased risk of other cancers. These are discussed later in this brochure. BREAST CANCER WOUND CARE Wound infections occur in about 1 in 20 patients with a breast or armpit wound. If an infection develops, the wound usually becomes more painful. You may also see swelling and redness, and pus may be seen around the edges of the wound. Rarely, you may feel unwell and DUCTAL CARCINOMA IN SITU (DCIS) FACT SHEET.
What is DCIS? Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) occurs when some of the cells that line a group of milk ducts within your breast have started to become cancer cells. MASTALGIA FACT SHEET Mastalgia literally means ‘breast pain’. It affects up to 70% of women at sometime in their lives. It is so common that it is considered to be a normal function of the body, rather than a disease. Some women, however, can have severe discomfort due to extremes of these normal changes. Breast pain may be accompanied by breasttenderness
BREAST CYST FACT SHEET A breast cyst is a localised collection of fluid in the breast. Fluid is constantly being produced and reabsorbed in the milk ducts in the breast. When a duct becomes blocked, or the amount of fluid produced is greater than the amount absorbed, fluid accumulates which causes cysts. Cysts can be single or multiple.MASTALGIA - BCI

Deposits of cancer in bones are called ‘bone metastases’ or ‘bone secondaries’. This information is a general guide.
