Abstract

Relevance of the problem. Benign breast disease (mastopathy) - is a complex of processes characterized by a wide range of proliferative and regressive changes in the tissues of the mammary glands with the formation of abnormal ratios of epithelial and connective tissue components and the formation in the mammary gland of changes of a fibrous, cystic, proliferative nature, which often, but not necessarily, coexist (WHO definition, 1984) . Benign breast disease (mastopathy) in women is a very common finding and results in a diagnosis in approximately one million women annually in the United States [35]. Benign Breast Disease (BBD) is one of the most important risk factors for breast cancer. Breast cancer is more common in women with BBD than in the general population [35].
