Breast cancer is the deadliest form of (cancer) cells in the breast tissue, which is a disease. The breast cancer can occur in both male and female children.
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women aged 15 to 39 years. In this age group, breast cancer is more aggressive and more difficult to treat than older women. Like treatment for younger and older women. Younger patients with breast cancer genetic counseling may be an argument) with a trained professional about the pros and testing for familial cancer syndromes (hereditary diseases. In addition, should consider the possible effects of treatment on fertility.
Most breast tumors in children fibroadenomas, which are benign (not cancer). Occasionally, these tumors are large phyllodes tumors (cancer) and early growth. If a benign tumor starts to grow rapidly, a fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy or excisional biopsy will be done. By a pathologist to check for signs of cancer tissue removed during biopsy will be viewed under a microscope.
Risk factors, signs, and troubleshooting and staging test
Breast cancer risk is increased by the following:
- For example, leukemia, rhabdomyosarcoma, soft tissue sarcoma, or lymphoma, is a personal history of a type of cancer that can spread to the breast.
- Or past treatment for a breast cancer, such as Hodgkin lymphoma with chest radiation therapy.
- Having a lump or thickening in or near the breast or underarm area.
- Changes in breast size or shape.
- A dimple or puckering of the skin of the breast.
- A nipple turned inward into the breast.
- The scaly, red, breast, nipple, or areola swelling of the skin (dark area of skin around the nipple).
- Soon an orange, peau D 'dimple in the breast that look like an orange.
Test cricket following the evaluation stage breast cancer:
- Physical exam and history.
- MRI.
- Ultrasound.
- PET scan.
- Blood chemistry studies.
- Chest X-ray.
- Biopsy.
Used to diagnose breast cancer test and mammogram (breast X-ray). Join a breast cancer treatment or radiation therapy to the chest, it must come to a mammogram and breast MR of the breast to check for cancer. This is also after radiation therapy, completing 10 years of age should begin at 25, or.
Treatment
Treatment of breast cancer in children may include the following:
- Watchful waiting for benign tumors.
- Surgery to remove the tumor, but not to the whole breast. Radiation therapy can be given.
Lung cancer
Lung cancer starts in the lung tissue. Lungs are a pair of cone-shaped breathing organs in the chest. Bring oxygen into the lungs breathe in your body. They breathe out your waste cells release carbon dioxide, body products. Each section of the lung lobes. The left lung has two lobes. Right lung is slightly larger and has three lobes. Two tubes right and left lung trachea (the windpipe) is called bronchi lead. alveoli and small tubes called bronchioles make up the inside of the lungs called the Ark of SACS.
In children, most lung tumors are malignant (cancer). The most common lung tumors are bronchial tumor and pleuropulmonary blastoma.
Bronchial tumor
Bronchial tumors begin in cells that line the lung surface. Most bronchial tumors in children are benign and are found in the trachea or large bronchi (large airways of the lungs). Sometimes, it becomes a cancer that can spread to other parts of a slow growing tumor bronchial body.

| Anatomy of the respiratory system, showing the trachea and both lungs and their lobes and airways. Lymph nodes and the diaphragm are shown. Oxygen is carried through the thin membranes of the alveoli and inhaled into the lungs through the bloodstream (see inset). |
Signs and symptoms
The bronchial tumor can cause any of the following signs and symptoms. Check with your child's doctor if your child has any of the following:
- Coughing.
- Wheezing.
- Trouble breathing.
- Spit up blood from the lungs or airways.
- Frequent lung infections such as pneumonia.
Diagnostic and staging test
Test cricket bronchial tumor to diagnose and stage may include the following:
- Physical exam and history.
- Chest X-ray.
- CT scans.
The biopsy is a minor area is not usually that can cause severe bleeding.
Shabi used to diagnose tumors include the following test:
- Bronchography: A procedure to look inside the trachea and large airways in the lung for abnormal areas. A bronchoscope is inserted through the nose or mouth and trachea into the lungs. A bronchoscope is a thin, tube-like instrument with a light and a lens for viewing. In contrast dye to make the larynx, the trachea is put through the bronchoscope, and the airways are more clearly visible on X-ray film.
- Octreotide scan: carcinoid and a variety of radionuclide scan used to find other types of tumors. A very small amount of radioactive octreotide (a hormone that attaches to carcinoid tumors) is injected through a vein and blood. The radioactive octreotide tumor and finds out where the radiation is used to show tumors in the body attaches to a camera.
With bronchial cancer on prognosis (chance of recovery) is great for kids.
Treatment
Treatment of bronchial tumors in children may include the following:
- Surgery to remove the tumor. Sometimes used as a name of a sleeve resection surgery. Lymph nodes are removed and the vessels where the cancer has spread.
- Chemotherapy or radiation therapy for cancer has spread to other parts of the body.
Pleuropulmonary Blastoma
Pleuropulmonary blastomas (PPBs) forms in tissues of the lung and pleura (the tissue that covers the lungs and lines the chest). PPBs can create organs including the lungs, heart, aorta and pulmonary artery, or diaphragm (the main breathing muscle under the lungs).
PPB are three types:
- Type I tumors are cyst-like tumor in the lung. They are most common in children 2 years of age and usually can be treated. Type of IR tumors that have not spread or tumor is large or small.
- Type II cyst-like tumor with some solid parts. Sometimes the tumor has spread to the brain.
- Type III tumors are solid tumors. These tumors often spread to the brain.
PPB has increased following risk:
- Having pleuropulmonary blastoma cancer family syndrome.
- DICER1 is a change in the gene.
- A cough that does not go away.
- Trouble breathing.
- Fever.
- Lung infections, such as pneumonia.
- Wheezing.
- Pain in the chest or abdomen.
- Loss of appetite.
- Weight loss for no known reason.
- Feeling very tired.
PPB can be diagnosed and staged Test matches are as follows:
- Physical exam and history.
- Chest X-ray.
- CT scans.
- PET scan.
PPB used to diagnose other tests include the following:
- Bronchoscopy: A procedure to look inside the trachea and large airways in the lung for abnormal areas. A bronchoscope is inserted through the nose or mouth and trachea into the lungs. A bronchoscope is a thin, tube-like instrument with a light and a lens for viewing. It also examined tissue samples under a microscope for signs of cancer which can be a tool to remove.
- Thoracoscopy: A surgical procedure to look at the organs inside the chest to check for abnormal areas. The anksyun (cut) the substance btuyn tuu Rabbis, and the thurakuskupy ansyrtd antu were active. A thoracoscope is a thin, tube-like instrument with a light and a lens for viewing. It also examined under a microscope for signs of tissue or lymph node samples, which can be a tool to remove the cancer. In some cases, the esophagus or the procedure used to remove part of the lung. thoracoscope is certain tissues, organs, or lymph nodes can not be reached, a thoracotomy may be done. In this process, a large incision is made between the ribs and the chest is opened.
The prognosis
The prognosis (chance of recovery) depends on the following:
- pleuropulmonary blastoma type.
- Whether the tumor has spread to other parts of the body diagnosis.
- Whether the tumor has been completely removed by surgery.
Children are treated following the pleuropulmonary blastoma:
- Surgery to remove the entire lobe is in, with or without chemotherapy for lung tumors.
- Clinical trial of targeted therapy using a monoclonal antibody targeting.
Esophageal tumors can be benign (not cancerous) or malignant (cancer). esophageal cancer, malignant cells form in the tissues of the esophagus, which is a disease. The esophagus moves food and liquid from the throat to the stomach is hollow, muscular tube. Most esophageal tumors esophagus thin, flat cells that line the children begin.

| Esophagus, stomach and upper part of the gastrointestinal (digestive) system. |
Signs and symptoms
esophageal cancer can cause any of the following signs and symptoms. Check with your child's doctor if your child has any of the following:
- Trouble swallowing.
- Streaks of blood in sputum (mucus coughed up a lung).
- Weight loss.
- hoarseness and cough.
- Indigestion and heartburn.
- Vomiting with blood streaks.
Diagnostic and staging test
Test cricket to diagnose and stage esophageal cancer may include the following:
- Physical exam and history.
- Chest X-ray.
- CT scans.
- PET scan.
- Ultrasound.
- Biopsy.
used to diagnose esophageal cancer include the following tests:
- Esophagoscopy: A procedure to look inside the esophagus to check for abnormal areas. A esophagoscope is inserted through the mouth or nose and down the throat into the esophagus. A esophagoscope is a thin, tube-like instrument with a light and a lens for viewing. It also examined tissue samples under a microscope for signs of cancer, which can be a tool to remove. A biopsy is usually done during an esophagoscopy. A biopsy revealed cancer, but sometimes it can cause cancer in the esophagus.
- Bronchoscopy: A procedure to look inside the trachea and large airways in the lung for abnormal areas. A bronchoscope is inserted through the nose or mouth and trachea into the lungs. A bronchoscope is a thin, tube-like instrument with a light and a lens for viewing. It also examined tissue samples under a microscope for signs of cancer which can be a tool to remove.
- Thoracoscopy: A surgical procedure to look at the organs inside the chest to check for abnormal areas. An incision (cut) is made between two ribs and a thoracoscope is inserted into the chest. A thoracoscope is a thin, tube-like instrument with a light and a lens for viewing. It also examined under a microscope for signs of tissue or lymph node samples, which can be a tool to remove the cancer. Sometimes used to remove part of the esophagus or lung.
- Laparoscopy: to see the organs inside the abdomen to check for signs of disease in a surgical procedure. Small incisions (cuts) are made in the abdomen and a laparoscope (a thin, lighted tube) is inserted into one of the incisions wall. Other instruments such as removal of organs or tissue samples can be entered through a single or other incisions to carry out the evaluation method under a microscope for the symptoms of the disease.
esophageal cancer is difficult to treat because it is usually not possible to remove the entire tumor by surgery.
Treatment
Children treated for esophageal cancer may include the following:
- Radiation therapy is placed through the mouth into the esophagus through a plastic or metal tube.
- Chemotherapy.
- Surgery to remove all or part of the tumor.
Thymoma
Protein Thymoma is a rare tumor cells that cover the surface of the gland, such as tymusyh. Protein is a small organ in the upper chest under such tymusyh chest gland. It is part of the lymph system and white blood cells called lymphocytes, that would help fight infection. Thymoma is usually found in the form and often in front of the chest is a chest X-ray for another reason.

| Thymus gland anatomy. Protein is a small organ that such gland in the upper chest under the breast glands tymusyh. This is called white blood cells, lymphocytes, which protect the body against infection. |
Such as lymphoma or germ cell tumors of other types of tumor, such as protein can be configured in Gland tymusyh but they are not considered to be a thymoma.
Risk factors, signs and symptoms, and troubleshooting and staging test
Often the people who thymoma development of the immune system diseases or hormonal disorders:
- Myasthenia options.
- Polymyositis.
- The Lupus.
- Rheumatoid arthritis.
- Thyroiditis.
- Isaac syndrome.
- Pure red cell aplasia.
- Of hyperthyroidism.
- Addison disease.
- Panhypopituitarism.
Thymoma may cause any of the following signs and symptoms. Check with your child's doctor if your child has any of the following:
- Coughing.
- Trouble swallowing.
- The hoarseness.
- Pain or a tight feeling in the chest.
- Trouble breathing.
- Fever.
- Weight loss.
This is what can cause signs and symptoms of other conditions that are not thymoma.
Test cricket to diagnose and stage thymoma may include the following:
- Physical exam and history.
- Chest X-ray.
- CT scans.
- PET scan.
- MRI.
- Biopsy.
See general information section for a description of these tests and procedures.
The prognosis
The prognosis (chance of recovery when the tumor has not spread) is better. Childhood before the tumor has spread thymoma is usually diagnosed.
Treatment
Following treatment for thymoma in children may include:
- To much of the tumor as possible surgery.
- Radiation therapy.
- Chemotherapy.
See the PDQ on adult Thymoma and Thymic Carcinoma Treatment summary for more information.
Thymic Carcinoma
Thymic carcinoma protein is a rare cancer of the cells that cover the surface of the gland, such as tymusyh. Protein is a small organ in the upper chest under such tymusyh chest gland. It is part of the lymph system and white blood cells called lymphocytes, that would help fight infection. Thymic carcinoma is usually found in the form and often in front of the chest is a chest X-ray for another reason.

Other types of tumors, such as lymphoma or germ cell tumors, can be made in thymus, but they are not considered thiamic carcinoma or thymomas. (See the Thumoma block for more information).
The Treatment
Thalamic carcinoma can be removed very hard and can be done again after treatment.
Treatment for thymic carcinoma in children may include:
- The more you remove the tumor, the surgery
- radiation therapy
- Chemotherapy
- Targeted Medicine (Suntinib)
See PDQ summary on adult thymoma and thymic carcinoma treatment for more information.
Heart Tumor
Most tumors made in the heart are benign (not cancer). The benign heart tumors that appear in children include:
- Rabododoma: A tumor that is made up of fibers in muscles
- MySaxama: A tumor that can be a part of a inherited syndrome called the Karni Complex (see the Multiple Endocrine Nepalias Syndrome section for more information.)
- Teratoma: A type of germ cell tumor. In heart, these tumors are the highest in the pericardium (cardiac covering pouch). Some teritoma is lethal (cancer)
- Fibroma: A tumor used in a fiber-like tissue that keeps bones, muscles and other organs in place.
- Histoocytoid Cardiomyopathy tumor: A tumor that occurs in the heart cells that regulates the heart rhythm
- Hemangiomas: Cells contain a tumor
- Neurofibroma: A tumor that covers the nerves, which form in cells and tissues.
Prior to birth and newborns, the most common benign hormone tumors are teratoma. In a heritable condition called tubers, sclerosis, cardiovascular tumors can cause a fetus or newborn.
Malignant tumors, which begin in the heart, are rare in children with benign heart tumors. Fatal heart tumors include:
- Deadly teratoma
- Lymphoma
- Rhabdomyozoacoma: a cancer that occurs in the fibers made of muscles
- Angiospermoma: A cancer that is made in cells, which is the line of blood vessels or lymph vessels.
- Chondrosarcoma: A type of cancer that is usually in the cartilage of the bone but is very rare in the heart
- Infant fibrosarcoma
- Sinovial sarcoma: A cancer that usually occurs around the joints, but rarely rarely in the heart or the sac around the heart
Signs and symptoms
Heart Tumors Contact your child's doctor if your child has any of the following:
- Change the normal rhythm of the heart
- Trouble breathing, especially when babies are lying
- Pain in the middle of the chest which feels better
- cough
- Unconsciousness
- Feeling dizzy, tired or weak
- Fast heart rate
- Legs, ankles or swelling in the stomach
- feeling anxious.
- Symptoms of a stroke
- Sudden numbness or weakness of the face, arm or leg (especially one side of the body)
- Utter confusion or distraction
- Suddenly see trouble
- Suddenly feeling nervous or nervous
- Sudden loss of balance or coordination
- Sudden headache
Sometimes heart tumors are not the cause of any signs or symptoms
Other conditions which are not heart tumors can cause similar symptoms and symptoms.
Clinical and Staging Tests
Tests for diagnosis and phase heart tumors can include:
- Physical examination and history
- chest X-ray
- CT scan.
- MRI
See general information section for details
Other tests used to diagnose or treat heart tumors include:
- Echocardiogram: A process in which high-energy sound waves (ultrasound) is bounced and creates tissues or organs and aphas. A growing picture made of heart and heart valves is pumped in the form of blood through the heart.
- Electrocardiogram (EKG): Several pad (electrodes) of the heart's electrical activity are kept on the chest, arms and feet of the patient to check its rate and rhythm, and connected by EKG machine. Heart Activity Paper has a drawing on electrical activity that is faster or slower than heart disease or damage
Treatment for heart tumors in children may include:
- Vigilant waiting for benign tumors of heart muscles (rhabdomyoma), which are sometimes removed and move on their own
- Surgery (in which some or all heart transplants can be removed) and chemotherapy
- The targeted therapy for those patients, who are also tubassus sclerosis
Mesothelioma
Malignant mesothelioma is a disease in which lethal (cancerous cells) pleura (the thin layer of tissue that involves chest cavity lines and lungs) or peritoneum (thin layer tissue, which causes stomach lines and mostly covers the stomach organ ). Tumors usually spread on the surface of the organs without spreading in the limb. They can spread in lymph nodes near or near other parts of the body, also in malignant mesothelioma heart or testes, but it is rare.
Risk Factors, Symptoms and Symptoms, and Clinical and Staging Tests
Mesothelioma is sometimes used as a late effect of treatment, especially after the treatment of radiation therapy, mesothelioma has been exposed to asbestos, which was used in contact with asbestos. There is no information about the risk of mesothelioma in children coming before asbestos.
Mesothelioma may be the cause of some of the following symptoms and symptoms: If your child has any of the following, contact your child's doctor.
- Difficulty breathing.
- Pain below the rib cage
- Weight loss for any known cause
Other conditions which are not mesothelioma may be the cause of these symptoms and symptoms
To diagnose, test and mesothelioma may include:
- Physical examination and history
- chest X-ray
- CT scan.
- pet scan
- OK-needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy
See general information section for details
Other tests used for mesothelioma diagnosis include the following:
- Bronkoscopy: A process of viewing the trachea in the lungs and inside the large airways for abnormal areas. Bronchoscope is inserted through the nose or mouth in the trachea and lungs. A bronchoscope is a thin, tube-like device with lights and a lens for viewing. There may also be a device to remove tissue samples, which is checked in the microscope.
- Thoracoscopy: surgical procedure to look for organs inside the chest to examine abnormal areas. An incision (cut) is made between two ribs and a thorocoscope. A thorocoscope is a thin, tube-like device with light and a lens for viewing.Can also be a tool to remove the samples are tested under the microscope for signs of tissue or lymph nodes, cancer. In some cases, this process is used to remove part of the lung or anaphagus.
- Thoreakoti: An incision (cut) is made up of two ribs.
- Cytologic examination: Under a microscope, a test of cells (by a pathologist) is taken for mesothelioma, lungs or stomach to check for something abnormal. A pathologist examines the cells in fluid
Diagnosis of disease
Diagnosis (probability of recovery) is better when tumor does not spread
The Treatment
Treatment for mesothelioma in children may include:
- Surgery to remove the part of the breast and tissue around it
- Chemotherapy
- Radiation therapy, in the form of painkiller therapy, to remove the pain and improve the quality of life
