Adenosis newely diagnosed

[mum61]

Hi Dr I was cured of Endometroid Ovarian and Uterine Cancer both stage 1a Synchronous. Following routine checks of my Genetics and Mamograms I had two areas of concern which after biopsy and stress and anxiety was diagnosed as having Adenosis. I know this is a benign condition do these areas ever change and become Malignant. I await a Specialised MRI of the breast as a follow up is this normal following this diagnosis of the above ?
Thankyou Scoob

Dear Scoob:  Adenosis is an enlargement of the lobules of the breast.  In some cases, these lobules can form a scar-like structure called sclerosing adenosis.  There is no additional risk of breast cancer for adenosis but it is believed that there may be a slightly increased risk (similar to hyperplasia) of breast cancer in women with sclerosing adenosis.  MRI is a very sensitive test that is commonly used in women who are at high risk.  It can lead to false positive results and therefore, should not be used in isolation – the results of the MRI should be used along with mammogram, examination, and possibly ultrasound.

Hi I attended for my MRI scan of the Breasts the results from this showed Sclerosing Adenosis. There is no further areas of concern and I will be reviewed in 6 Months time. What will the review consist of  and with my History do you think they will follow me up for a while.  Kind Regards Scoob
