Lowdermilk: Maternity & Women’s Health Care, 11th Edition

 

MULTIPLE CHOICE

 

1.      A nurse is providing breast care education to a client after mammography. Which information regarding fibrocystic changes in the breast is important for the nurse to share?

a.

Fibrocystic breast disease is a disease of the milk ducts and glands in the breasts.

b.

It is a premalignant disorder characterized by lumps found in the breast tissue.

c.

Healthy women with fibrocystic breast disease find lumpiness with pain and

tenderness in varying degrees in the breast tissue during menstrual cycles.

d.

Lumpiness is accompanied by tenderness after menses.

ANS: C

Fibrocystic changes are palpable thickenings in the breast usually associated with pain and tenderness. The pain and tenderness fluctuate with the menstrual cycle. Fibrocystic changes are not premalignant changes; this information is inaccurate. Tenderness most often occurs before menses.

3.      Which diagnostic test is used to confirm a suspected diagnosis of breast cancer?

a.

Mammogram

b.

Ultrasound

c.

Needle-localization biopsy

d.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)

ANS: C

 

When a suspicious mammogram is noted or a lump is detected, diagnosis is confirmed by either a core-needle biopsy or a needle-localization biopsy. Mammography is a clinical screening tool that may aid in the early detection of breast cancers. Transillumination, thermography, and ultrasound breast imaging are being explored as methods for detecting early breast carcinoma. An MRI is useful in women with masses that are difficult to find (occult breast cancer).
