SILICONE BREAST IMPLANTS AND BREAST CANCER


Do you ever feel like you know just about enough to be dangerous? Let's see if we can fill in some of the gaps with the latest info from experts.

Breast cancer occurs in tissues with dense glands and ducts, and may spread throughout the body. About one in every eight women in North America develops breast cancer in her lifetime. Because of the safety issues surrounding silicone in medical devices and the incidence rate of breast cancer in the human population, questions concerning increased risks of developing breast cancer for women with breast implants have been raised. As the following clinical studies indicate, the likelihood of developing breast cancer does not seem to increase with the use of silicone breast implants.

A 1986 University of Southern California study published in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery investigated over 3000 women in the Los Angeles area who received silicone breast implants between 1959 and 1980. Results found no increased risk of breast cancer following breast implant surgery compared to standard incidence ratios.
1992 A five year update of this study followed the same group and confirmed the original findings.

Those of you not familiar with the latest on now have at least a basic understanding. But there's more to come.

A 1992 University of Calgary study published in the New England Journal of Medicine investigated over 11,000 women in Alberta, Canada who received silicone breast implants between 1973 and 1986. This study, "did not find an increased risk of cancer among women who had received breast implants, although the length of follow-up, the completeness of follow-up, and the size of the cohort would have allowed the detection of such a risk .

A 1996 Georgia, New Jersey, and Washington study published in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, investigated over 2000 women with breast implants. The results of this study are consistent with those of Alberta and the Los Angeles studies, finding no association between silicone breast implants and breast cancer.

A 2000 brochure published by the Institute of Medicine, Information for Women About the Safety of Silicone Breast Implants reports "Evidence clearly shows that silicone breast implants do not cause breast cancer or the Recurrence of breast cancer. In fact, some studies suggest that women with breast implants have fewer new or recurring cancers. "

If you've picked some pointers about that you can put into action, then by all means, do so. You will not really be able to gain any benefits from your new knowledge if you do not use it.
