Kemoterapi dibedakan menjadi dua, yakni pertama, kemoterapi neoadjuvant. Kemoterapi ini diberikan
sebelum pengobatan primer (seperti pembedahan). Kemoterapi neuadjuvant berfungsi untuk menyusutkan
ukuran tumor. Terapi ini juga bisa diberikan sebelum pemberian radiasi.
Kedua, kemoterapi adjuvant. Pengobatan terapi yang digunakan setelah tumor diangkat melalui
pembedahan. Tujuannya untuk menghancurkan sel-sel kanker mikroskopik yang mungkin tertinggal.
Biasanya terapi ini diberikan kepada penderita kanker yang sudah dalam tahap IV (metastatis)
Mastectomy is the removal of the whole breast. There are five different types of mastectomy: "simple" or
"total" mastectomy, modified radical mastectomy, radical mastectomy, partial mastectomy, and subcutaneous
(nipple-sparing) mastectomy.
"Simple" or "total" mastectomy
Simple or total mastectomy concentrates on the breast tissue itself:
• The surgeon removes the entire breast.
• The surgeon does not perform axillary lymph node dissection (removal of lymph nodes in the
underarm area). Sometimes, however, lymph nodes are occasionally removed because they happen
to be located within the breast tissue taken during surgery.
• No muscles are removed from beneath the breast.
Who usually gets simple or total mastectomy?
A simple or total mastectomy is appropriate for women with multiple or large areas of ductal carcinoma in
situ (DCIS) and for women seeking prophylactic mastectomies — that is, breast removal in order to prevent
any possibility of breast cancer occurring.
Radical mastectomy
Radical mastectomy is the most extensive type of mastectomy:
• The surgeon removes the entire breast.
• Levels I, II, and III of the underarm lymph nodes are removed (B, C, and D in illustration).
• The surgeon also removes the chest wall muscles under the breast.
Who usually gets a radical mastectomy?
Today, radical mastectomy is recommended only when the breast cancer has spread to the chest muscles
under the breast. Although common in the past, radical mastectomy is now rarely performed because in most
cases, modified radical mastectomy has proven to be just as effective and less disfiguring.
Partial mastectomy
Partial mastectomy is the removal of the cancerous part of the breast tissue and some normal tissue around it.
While lumpectomy is technically a form of partial mastectomy, more tissue is removed in partial mastectomy
than in lumpectomy.
Nipple-sparing mastectomy
During nipple-sparing mastectomy, all of the breast tissue is removed, but the nipple is left alone.
The surgery is often followed by radiation therapy to the remaining breast tissue. With radiation therapy,
powerful X-rays target the breast tissue. The radiation kills cancer cells and prevents them from spreading, or
reoccurring.
A mastectomy is an umbrella term used for several techniques to remove one or both breasts. In addition, the
surgeon may also remove nearby lymph nodes to determine whether the cancer has spread.
During an axillary node dissection, the surgeon removes a number of lymph nodes from your armpit on the
side of the tumor.
In a sentinel lymph node biopsy, your surgeon removes only the first few nodes into which a tumor drains
(sentinel nodes).
Lymph nodes removed during a mastectomy are then tested for cancer. If no cancer is present, no further
lymph nodes need be removed. If cancer is present, the surgeon will discuss options, such as radiation to
your armpit. If this is what you decide to do, no further lymph nodes will need to be removed.
Removing all of the breast tissue and most of the lymph nodes is called a modified radical mastectomy.
Newer mastectomy techniques remove less tissue and fewer lymph nodes.
Other types of mastectomy include:
• Total mastectomy. A total mastectomy, also known as a simple mastectomy, involves removal of the
entire breast, including the breast tissue, areola and nipple. A sentinel lymph node biopsy may be
done at the time of a total mastectomy.
• Skin-sparing mastectomy. A skin-sparing mastectomy involves removal of all the breast tissue,
nipple and areola, but not the breast skin. A sentinel lymph node biopsy also may be done. Breast
reconstruction can be performed immediately after the mastectomy.
A skin-sparing mastectomy may not be suitable for larger tumors.
• Nipple-sparing mastectomy. A nipple- or areola-sparing mastectomy involves removal of only
breast tissue, sparing the skin, nipple and areola. A sentinel lymph node biopsy also may be done.
Breast reconstruction is performed immediately afterward.
Well-differentiated cancer cells look more like normal cells and tend to grow and spread more slowly than
poorly differentiated or undifferentiated cancer cells -> doesnt look like normal cell and grow RAPIDLY
EDUKASI KE KELUARGA ?
Berdasarkan hasil pemeriksaan ini ini, ibu di diagnosis ca payudara, menurut pemeriksaan ca payudara nya
stadium sekian sekian,
jangan khawatir bu, pilihan terapi nya ini ini, saya sarankan agar ibu terapi yang dianjurkan karena semakin
awal terapinya hasilnya akan semakin baik, kemungkinan penyakitnya ada hubungannya dengan keturunan,
jadi keluarga ibu jg berisiko, sehingga akan baik jika dilakukan pemeriksaan payudara, seperti sadari atau
melakukan pemeriksaan ke dokter
Terdapat 5 hingga 10% kejadian kanker payudara yang disebabkan oleh keturunan.
