Lobular Carcinoma
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Lobular carcinoma is a type of malignant breast tumor that originates in the lobules, the glands responsible for producing milk. It can develop without forming an obvious lump, which is why it is sometimes detected on imaging studies.
Which specialist treats it? The oncologist and the gynecologic oncologist are the professionals who coordinate the evaluation of this condition, with the participation of the gynecologist in the assessment of breast health.
Signs to keep in mind: changes in the texture, size, or appearance of the breast, which are worth not overlooking.
When to see a doctor? In the face of any change in the breasts or as part of routine screening, the prudent thing is a professional evaluation. Timely care is key in this type of condition.
