Is surgery good for bilateral breast hyperplasia and breast nodules?

Patient's question:

Bilateral breast gland thickening, uneven internal echoes, reduced echoes, and normal bilateral glandular ductal course. Glandular structure is disorganized. At 4 o'clock position in the right breast, 2 cm away from the nipple, there is a 19.45 cm low-echo area with clear boundaries and no blood flow signals observed. Would you recommend surgery? If surgery is recommended, is it better to have a minimally invasive procedure or a traditional surgery? Thank you.

Doctor's answer:

Hello! The ultrasound finding of a nodule suggests the possibility of inflammation, but it cannot confirm the nature of the inflammation or whether it is benign or malignant. In women, common benign breast masses are fibroadenomas, which are round or oval-shaped, relatively hard, well-defined, mobile, and often single. Malignant tumors are typically breast cancer, which presents as painless masses with relatively clear boundaries, often accompanied by breast skin inflammation, such as orange peel-like changes. There may also be nipple retraction or inversion, and axillary lymphadenopathy.
Recommendation: The possibility of a fibroadenoma is high. It is recommended to undergo a needle biopsy or minimally invasive excisional biopsy, and then consider further treatment options.
Hyperplasia of the breast is an easily occurring gynecological disease. During treatment, women should pay attention to their self-care.
