Khansara ya m'mimba sichisankha. Sichilemekeza zaka, chikhalidwe, mtundu, fuko, chikhalidwe komanso chuma.
Komabe, si matenda omwe ali nawo. Pali kusiyana kosiyana pakati pa amuna ndi akazi; amapezanso kawirikawiri m'mitundu yosiyana komanso magulu osiyanasiyana. Mitundu yosiyana ya khansa ya m'mawere imapezeka kawirikawiri pamtundu umodzi pa zina nthawi zambiri ndi zotsatira zochepa.
Matenda makamaka azimayi, ndipo amayi amodzi mwa amayi asanu ndi atatu (8) aliwonse ku US akupanga kansa ya m'mawere m'thupi nthawi zonse, amapezeka mwa amuna omwe amawayeza khansa ya m'ma 2000.
Anthu omwe ali ndi ziwalo zoopsa zomwe zimayambitsa matenda a khansa amatenga khansa ya m'mawere m'mwamba kwambiri kusiyana ndi omwe ali ndi zifukwa zokha zomwe zingawononge amayi ndi ukalamba. Pafupifupi 5-10% ya khansa ya m'mawere ikhoza kugwirizanitsidwa ndi kusintha kwa majini (kusintha kosasintha) kochokera kwa amayi kapena abambo anu. Zosintha za majeremusi a BRCA1 ndi BRCA2 ndizofala kwambiri
Khansara ya khansa ya amayi imakhala pafupifupi kawiri ngati mayi, mlongo, kapena mwana wake ali ndi khansa ya m'mawere.
Pafupifupi 85% ya khansa ya m'mawere imapezeka mwa amayi omwe alibe mbiri ya banja la matendawa.
Nyuzipepala ya American Cancer Society ya 2015 ikulinganiza pafupifupi 231,840 matenda atsopano a khansa ya m'mawere, ndi 62,290 matenda atsopano a carcinoma in situ (CIS), mtundu wosawoneka ndi oyambirira wa khansa ya m'mawere.
Azimayi pafupifupi 40,290 adzafa ndi matendawa.
Khansara ya m'mimba mwa amayi oposa 40 amawerengera 5% mwa omwe amawapeza chaka chilichonse. Khansara ya m'mimba mwa atsikana nthawi zambiri imakhala yamwano. Popeza amayi a msinkhu uwu samakhala ndi mamemogram, sangapange zoyezetsa zokha kapena aziyezetsa mawere, ma khansa awo amatha kusadziwika kufikira atakula kwambiri.
Mitengo ya kukula ndi kufa kuchokera kwa khansa ya m'mawere imasiyana pakati pa mafuko ndi mafuko osiyanasiyana.
Malinga ndi National Cancer Institute, azimayi, omwe si a ku Spain, amakhala ndi chiwerengero cha khansa ya m'mawere kwambiri pakati pa mafuko a mafuko a US. Amwenye Achimerika ndi mbadwa za Alaskans ali ndi chiŵerengero chochepa kwambiri.
Kansara ya m'mimba imapezeka kawirikawiri mwazimayi ozungulira pakati pa zaka 55 ndi 64. Zimapezeka m'mbuyomu kuzimayi zakuda.
Amayi akuda, a zaka zapakati pa 40 mpaka 50 ali ndi chiwopsezo cha khansa ya m'mawere kuposa akazi oyera. Azimayi achimuna amakhalanso ndi mwayi waukulu wopezeka, ali aang'ono, ali ndi khansa ya m'mawere yoopsa kwambiri. Amakhalanso ndi chiŵerengero chachikulu cha imfa kuchokera ku khansa ya m'mawere.
Akazi a ku Spain / a Latina, pafupipafupi, amapezeka kuti ali aang'ono kwambiri kusiyana ndi akazi omwe sali achipanishi (zaka zisanu ndi ziwiri zotsutsana ndi zaka 61). Amakhala ndi zotupa zambiri ndi zizindikiro zomwe zikulosera zotsatira zosauka.
Azimayi a ku Asia amayamba kutenga khansa ya m'mawere ali okalamba kuposa akazi oyera. Amakhalanso ndi minofu yambiri yamatenda. Azimayi a ku Asia ndi America ali ndi chiwerengero chochepa cha kuyang'anitsitsa khansa ya m'mawere, zomwe zimapangitsa mwayi wawo wodwala matendawa pakapita nthawi.
Ali ndi chiwerengero chochepa kwambiri cha maonekedwe a mammogram kuposa mtundu uliwonse wa mafuko a US.
Sitingasinthe mtundu wathu kapena mtundu wathu, koma tikhoza kukhala ndi moyo wathanzi ndikuchepetsera chiopsezo chotenga khansa ya m'mawere.
Mliri wa imfa, m'magawo ang'onoang'ono, ukhoza kuchepetsedwa ngati amayi ambiri amafufuzidwa nthawi zonse ndipo khansa yawo ya m'mawere imapezedwa ndikuchiritsidwa kumayambiriro. Pali zifukwa zambiri zomwe zimapangitsa amayi kufunafuna chisamaliro ndi matenda otha msinkhu, kuphatikizapo: Kuzindikira kokha za khansa ya m'mawere, kusowa kwa inshuwaransi yaumphawi, kupeza mwayi wothandizira kupewa, kusokoneza chinenero, kusawongolera dongosolo la chithandizo chamankhwala, ndi zikhulupiliro za anthu ambiri mankhwala.
Mu 2015, pali amayi oposa 2.8 miliyoni omwe ali ndi mbiri ya khansa ya m'mawere ku US Izi zikuphatikizapo amayi omwe akuchitidwa chithandizo ndi akazi omwe atha kuchiza chithandizo.
Zowonjezera: American Cancer Society, National Institutes of Health, National Cancer Institute, Zomwe Zimayambitsa Matenda a Matenda
Jean Campbell ali ndi khansa ya khansa ya 2x ndi mkulu woyambitsa bungwe la American Cancer Society ku New York City Patient Navigator Programme muzipatala 14 zapagulu ndi zapadera. Iye ndi mkulu woyang'anira bungwe lopanda phindu lomwe amapereka kafukufuku ndi zowonjezera zowunikira komanso thandizo kwa amayi ndi abambo omwe amapezeka kumene ali ndi khansara ya m'mawere.
