Preview- It appears that, for those diagnosed with Stage IV (intravenous) breast (i.e., mamma, or teat) cancer, the survival rates more than tripled as each year past with a 17% survival rate in the first year up to a 56% survival rate for patients who lived five years with the disease. Breast cancer, cancer that forms in tissues of the breast, usually the ducts (tubes that carry milk (i.e., strip, or lac) to the nipple (i.e., papilla mammae, or mammilla)) and lobules (glands that make milk). It occurs in both men and women, although male (i.e., masculine) breast (i.e., mamma masculina, or mamma virilis) cancer is rare. Breast, glandular (i.e., glandulous) organ located on the chest (i.e., pectus). The breast is made up of connective tissue (i.e., interstitial tissue, or supporting tissue), fat, and breast tissue that contains the glands that can make milk. Also called mammary gland (i.e., glandula mammaria, or lactiferous gland). Stage is the extent of a cancer in the body. Staging is usually based on the size of the tumor (i.e., neoplasm), whether lymph nodes contain cancer, and whether the cancer has spread from the original site to other parts of the body.
- It might seem apparant that, for stage IV ovarian cancer, the 5-year survival rate is 17. Ovarian, having to do with the ovaries, the female reproductive glands in which the ova (eggs) are formed. The ovaries are located in the pelvis, one on each side of the uterus (i.e., metra, or womb). Ovarian cancer, cancer that forms in tissues of the ovary (i.e., ovarium, or female gonad) (one of a pair of female reproductive glands in which the ova, or eggs, are formed). Most ovarian cancers are either ovarian epithelial carcinomas (cancer that begins in the cells on the surface (i.e., face, or facies) of the ovary) or malignant germ cell (i.e., sex cell) tumors (cancer that begins in egg cells).
- Evidently, there are four main ovarian cancer stages which are stages I to IV (intravenous).
