Pathology report Breast

I recently had an excisional biopsy of right breast.
The pathology report reads:
FIBROCYSTIC CHANGES (FICROSIS,DUCT ECTASI, AND APOCRINE METAPLASIA)
MICROSCOPIC FIBROADENOMATOSIS
FOCAL FLORID DUCTAL HYPERPLASIA,WITHPUT CYTOLOGIC ATYPIA
MULTIPLE MICROCALCIFICATIONS ARE PRESENT WITHIN BENIGN GLANDS
NO EVIDENCE OF MALIGANCY.

My Question how far was this from being cancer?
would I have been in danger if it had not been removed.
I do have family histort of breast cancer.

Dear rabdancer, None of these biopsy findings are considered to be pre-cancerous or  risk factors for the development of cancer.  You may want to discuss with your physician your individual risk of breast cancer, based on your specific situation.
