He mau kiko keʻokeʻo ma ka mammogram? E aʻo pono kākou e pili ana i nā calcifications o ka umauma!

Ua ʻōlelo anei kāu hōʻike mammogram hou loa ʻo 'Breast Calcifications'? I kou ʻike ʻana i kēlā, ua manaʻo iki ʻoe i ka makaʻu a me ka hopohopo, ʻeā? Ua manaʻo paha ʻoe, 'Auē, he hōʻailona kēia o ka maʻi kanesa?' He mea maʻamau ka manaʻo pēlā. Akā ma mua o kou hopohopo ʻana, e akāka kākou i kēia lā. No ka mea, ʻo ka hapa nui o ka manawa, ʻaʻohe mea e makaʻu ai kēia.

I ka ʻōlelo maʻalahi, he aha nā calcifications o ka umauma?

Hoʻokumu ʻia kēia e nā waihona liʻiliʻi o ka calcium i loko o ka ʻiʻo umauma. E like me nā ʻāpana lepo. He liʻiliʻi loa kēia mau mea ʻaʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike iā lākou. ʻAʻole lākou e ʻeha. No laila ʻike wale ʻoe aia lākou ma laila ke loaʻa iā ʻoe kahi mammogram. He hoʻāʻo X-ray kūikawā ka mammogram e nānā ana i nā ʻano ʻē i loko o nā umauma.

ʻO ka maʻamau, ʻaʻole ia he mea ʻino (maikaʻi ʻole) . Eia naʻe, he mea kakaikahi loa, hiki iā lākou ke lilo i hōʻailona mua o ka ulu ʻana o nā cell maʻamau ʻole i loko o ka ʻiʻo umauma. ʻO ia ke kumu e hopohopo nei nā kauka no lākou. Ma ka nānā ʻana i ka nui, ke ʻano, a me ka laha ʻana o kēia mau waihona calcium, hiki i kāu kauka ke hoʻoholo inā he maʻamau lākou a inā paha e pono ana ka hoʻāʻo hou ʻana e kāpae i ka maʻi kanesa.

ʻElua mau ʻano nui o nā waihona calcium:

Hiki ke hoʻokaʻawale ʻia kēia i ʻelua ʻano nui ma muli o ke ʻano o ko lākou ʻike ʻia ma ka mammogram. He mea nui loa ia iā ʻoe e ʻike i kēia mau mea ʻelua.

No ke aha i waiho ʻia ai ke ʻano o ka calcium e like me kēia i loko o nā umauma?

ʻAʻohe kumu hoʻokahi no kēia, akā hiki ke hana ʻia ma muli o nā kaʻina hana like ʻole e hoʻopilikia ai i ka ʻiʻo umauma. ʻO kēia mau mea he mau waihona calcium maikaʻi ʻole i hiki ke hana ʻia e:

• He ʻeha i nā umauma.
• Nā ʻōpū umauma .
• Nā maʻi umauma.
• Nā loli i loko o nā kīʻaha koko o nā umauma me ka makahiki.
• Nā puʻupuʻu umauma ʻino ʻole (Fibroadenomas) .
• Ka pale ʻana o nā ala waiū (mammary duct ectasia) .
• ʻO ke ʻoki umauma ma mua.
• Ka lāʻau lapaʻau ma mua no ka maʻi ʻaʻai umauma.

Hoʻoulu pinepine ʻia nā waihona calcium e pili ana i ka maʻi kanesa me kahi kūlana i kapa ʻia ʻo Ductal Carcinoma in Situ (DCIS) . ʻO DCIS kahi pae mua loa o ka maʻi ʻaʻai umauma e hoʻomaka ana ma nā ducts waiū akā ʻaʻole i laha (non-invasive).

Pehea e ʻike ai ke kauka i kēia? He aha nā hoʻokolohua a lākou e hana ai?

ʻIke mua ʻia kēia ma ka mammogram maʻamau. Inā kānalua ka radiologist e nānā ana i ka hōʻike e pili ana i ke ʻano o kēia mau waihona calcium, ʻo ia hoʻi, inā aia lākou i loko o kahi hui a i ʻole ma kahi laina, hiki iā lākou ke paipai i kekahi mau hoʻokolohua hou aʻe e hōʻoia ʻaʻole lākou he maʻi kanesa.

• ʻO ka Mammogram Diagnostic: ʻOi aku ka kikoʻī o kēia ma mua o ka mammogram maʻamau. Ua like ia me ka hoʻonui ʻana i kahi kāmela. Lawe ia i nā kiʻi o nā waihona calcium mai nā kihi like ʻole e aʻo ai i ke ʻano a me ka hoʻonohonoho ʻana o nā waihona.
• Biopsy:I ka hapanui o nā hihia, pono kahi biopsy e hoʻoholo ai i ke kumu kikoʻī o nā waihona calcium. Pili kēia i ka nānā ʻana i nā kiʻi mai ka mammogram a me ka hoʻohana ʻana i kahi nila kūikawā e lawe i kahi ʻāpana liʻiliʻi loa o ka ʻiʻo mai kahi i loaʻa ai ka calcium a hoʻouna iā ia i ka lab no ka hoʻāʻo ʻana. Ua kapa ʻia kēia he Stereotactic Biopsy a i ʻole Core Needle Biopsy . ʻO kēia wale nō ke ala e haʻi ai me ka pololei 100% inā he mau cell ʻē aʻe a ʻaʻole paha.

E hoʻomanaʻo i kēia ma mua o ka hana ʻana i kahi mammogram!

I kekahi manawa, hiki i nā mea i loko o kāu deodorant, pauka, a kirīmi paha ke hana i nā kiko keʻokeʻo, e like me nā waihona calcium, e ʻike ʻia ma kāu mammogram. ʻAʻole paha kēia he mea kūpono ʻole. No laila, mai hoʻopili i kekahi mea e like me kēia i kou mau armpits a i ʻole nā ​​​​umauma i ka lā o kāu mammogram. Inā ʻoe e hoʻopili hewa, e holoi iā ia ma mua o ka hoʻāʻo.

Pono anei e mālama ʻia kēia mau waihona calcium?

ʻO ka pane pinepine he "ʻaʻole." ʻO ka hapa nui o kēia mau mea he mea ʻino ʻole a ʻaʻole pono kekahi lāʻau lapaʻau. E hoʻohālikelike kāu kauka i ke kiʻi hou me ka mea kahiko i ka manawa aʻe e loaʻa ai iā ʻoe kahi mammogram. ʻO ia hoʻi, e ʻike inā ua loli nā kiko calcium.

Eia nō naʻe, inā hōʻoia nā hoʻokolohua he hōʻailona paha kēia mau waihona calcium no ka maʻi kanesa, ʻaʻole no nā waihona calcium ka lāʻau lapaʻau, akā no nā hunaola kanesa nāna i hoʻokumu. I kēlā manawa, e kuhikuhi ʻia ʻoe i kahi kauka ʻoki umauma. Hiki ke komo pū nā koho lapaʻau:

• Ke wehe ʻana i kahi ʻāpana o ka ʻiʻo a i ʻole ka umauma holoʻokoʻa ma ke ʻoki ʻana.
• Ka radiation a me/a i ʻole chemotherapy.
• Lapaʻau lāʻau i kuhikuhi ʻia.

Hiki iā ʻoe ke kūkākūkā i kēia me kāu kauka a koho i ka lāʻau lapaʻau e kūpono loa iā ʻoe.

Pono anei au e makaʻu i kēia?

I ka pōkole, ʻo ka hapa nui o ka manawa, ʻaʻohe kumu e hopohopo ai. ʻAʻole pilikia kēia mau mea. ʻOiai he kakaikahi lākou he hōʻailona o ka maʻi kanesa, he mea maikaʻi ia hiki i ka mammogram ke ʻike iā lākou i ka wā mua loa . No ka mea, ʻo ka wā mua e ʻike ʻia ai lākou, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka manawa e ho'ōla piha ʻia me ka lāʻau lapaʻau.

Ua hōʻike ʻia nā noiʻi ʻoiai ʻo nā waihona calcium kānalua loa i kuhikuhi ʻia no ka hoʻāʻo hou aku he benign . Eia kekahi, ma kahi o ka hapalua o nā maʻi ʻaʻai umauma āpau me ka ʻole o kahi puʻupuʻu hiki ke ʻike ʻia he mau waihona calcium liʻiliʻi (microcalcifications). ʻO ke ʻano kēia, ʻo ka loaʻa ʻana o lākou ma ka mammogram he mea nui loa ia no ka ʻike ʻana i nā maʻi ʻaʻai mua e like me DCIS.

ʻAʻohe ala e pale aku ai i ka hoʻokumu ʻia ʻana o kēia mau waihona calcium. Akā, ʻo ka loaʻa ʻana o nā mammograms i ka manawa kūpono ke ala maikaʻi loa e pale aku ai iā lākou.Inā ulu ka maʻi ʻaʻai, ʻo ke ala maikaʻi loa ka loaʻa ʻana i ka wā mua.
