Resumen
Este informe detalla un raro caso de carcinoma de mama en una mujer transgénero diez años después de la transición. Destaca los limitados casos documentados y analiza los estrógenos.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Endocrinología Endocrinología.
- Oncología Oncología.
- Cuidados que afirman el género.
Sus antecedentes:
- El carcinoma de mama es raro en los hombres.
- Las mujeres transgénero pueden usar terapia de reemplazo hormonal (TRH).
- Los efectos a largo plazo de la TRH en el riesgo de cáncer requieren investigación.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Para reportar un caso de carcinoma de mama en un paciente transgénero de hombre a mujer.
- Revisar la literatura existente sobre el cáncer de mama en hombres transexuales.
- Para discutir el papel potencial de la terapia hormonal en la etiología del cáncer de mama.
Principales métodos:
- Presentación del informe de caso.
- Revisión de la literatura de casos similares.
- Discusión de las influencias hormonales.
Principales resultados:
- Un caso de carcinoma de mama se produjo 10 años después de la reasignación sexual de hombre a mujer.
- Solo se identificaron dos casos previos de carcinoma de mama en hombres transexuales.
- Todos los casos reportados involucraron el uso prolongado de estrógenos orales.
Conclusiones:
- El carcinoma de mama es un diagnóstico poco común pero posible en mujeres transgénero.
- La terapia prolongada con estrógenos puede ser un factor contribuyente.
- Se necesita más investigación sobre las influencias hormonales en el cáncer de mama masculino.

02:18Cancer
Cancers arise due to mutations in genes involved in the regulation of cell division, which leads to unrestricted cell proliferation. Modern science and medicine have made great strides in the understanding and treatment of cancer, including eradicating cancer in some patients. However, there is still no cure for cancer. This is largely due to the fact that cancer is a large group of many diseases.
02:12What is Cancer?
Cells and tissues must meticulously coordinate their activities for the normal functioning of the human body. Therefore, they exhibit socially responsible behavior - resting, growing, dividing, differentiating, or dying - for the organism’s benefit. Cancer arises when cells divide uncontrollably and invade other tissues or organs.
Although people have known about cancer for centuries, it was only in 1761 that Giovanni Morgagni of Padua performed a detailed autopsy of patients who died from...

02:43Mouse Models of Cancer Study
Mice have long served as models for studying human biology and pathology because of their phylogenetic and physiological similarity with humans. They are also easy to maintain and breed in the laboratory, and hence, many inbred strains are now available for research. Studies on mice have contributed immeasurably to our understanding of cancer biology.
The development of transgenic, knockout, and knock-in mice has led to an exponential increase in their use as model organisms in research,...

01:21Cancer Survival Analysis
Cancer survival analysis focuses on quantifying and interpreting the time from a key starting point, such as diagnosis or the initiation of treatment, to a specific endpoint, such as remission or death. This analysis provides critical insights into treatment effectiveness and factors that influence patient outcomes, helping to shape clinical decisions and guide prognostic evaluations. A cornerstone of oncology research, survival analysis tackles the challenges of skewed, non-normally...
