My friend had a surgical biopsy and was told it was benign, however she had atypia cells, also had been told moderate. The Doctor suggested preventative cemotherapy. She has other cancers in her family history.

Hi, Why did your friend have the surgical biopsy?? Did she have any previous history of problems?? Did her mom or sis have breast cancer??? What were the results of the biopsy??? I'm only asking because I just had a surgical biopsy also to  investigate atypia cells & I was told I would have to meet w/ an oncologist..Let me know if you have any ??? Maybe I can help w/ what I have already gone thru..Make sure she gets all the info she can & tell her to ask alot of ???? about the chemo tell her to ask it's effectiveness & side effects..Good Luck w/ your friend

Hi,

Atypia is the presence of abnormal cells in the tissue. Why was the surgical biopsy done?

The preventive chemotherapy has been suggested by her breast specialist or oncologist?

It would be best to discuss the case with an oncologist and take his/her opinion.

Do let us know how she is doing and what does the specialist say.

Regards.
