What are the stages of breast cancer and prognosis?

The stages of breast cancer can broadly be divided into 4 based on the extent of the lump in the breast, the involvement of the glands that the breast drains into, as well as the presence of disease outside the breast.

Stage I: A small lump with no disease elsewhere except for tiny deposits in the glands in the armpit. In this stage, there is an excellent chance of long-term control subject to the grade of the lesion.

Stage II: In this stage, the patient has either a small cancerous lump with a few affected glands or a large lump with no affected glands. Patients with stage II breast cancer have an excellent chance of cure.

Stage III: Implies the presence of a large lump with affected glands in or the presence of 4 or more involved glands in the underarm.

Stage IV: Indicates advanced disease, such as infiltration of the skin, chest wall, or involvement of glands in the armpit and also centrally. Spread of disease to other distant organs is also termed stage IV cancer.

What are the causes and risk factors for bladder cancer?

Anything that increases your chance of getting bladder cancer is a risk factor. These include:

Smoking tobacco: This is the greatest risk factor for bladder cancer. Smokers, including pipe and cigar smokers, are two to three times more likely than nonsmokers to get bladder cancer. Chemicals in tobacco smoke are absorbed into the blood, and then they pass through the kidneys and collect in the urine. These chemicals can damage the inside of the bladder and increase your chances of getting bladder cancer.

Age: The chance of developing bladder cancer increases with age, and it is uncommon in people under 40.

Race: Bladder cancer occurs twice as often in Caucasians as it does in African-Americans and Hispanics. Asians have the lowest rate of developing the disease.
