A detailed analysis by questionnaire of breast pain in 460 newly referred patients at a specialized breast clinic revealed that only 1.5% of patients with pain had an early breast cancer. Of all 44 cancers 8 were painful but only 4 considered early. All these had nipple retraction. We conclude that although breast pain is rarely associated with cancer, localized pain must be fully investigated to exclude this diagnosis.
对一家专业乳腺诊所新转诊的460例患者进行的乳房疼痛问卷调查详细分析显示，疼痛患者中只有1.5%患有早期乳腺癌。在所有44例癌症中，8例有疼痛，但只有4例被认为是早期癌症。所有这些病例均有乳头回缩。我们得出结论，虽然乳房疼痛很少与癌症相关，但对于局限性疼痛必须进行全面检查以排除该诊断。
