Breast Cancer

Breast Cancer Overview

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers that can develop in women. The most common types of breast cancer include ductal and lobular cancer. In addition, there are rarer forms of breast cancer such as phyllodes tumor and angiosarcoma. Breast cancer occurs in both men and women, although male breast cancer is rare.

Successfully treating breast cancer takes a multi-disciplinary approach which can include medical oncology, radiation oncology, and surgical oncology. At Maryland Oncology Hematology, we’re able to provide patients with increased access to integrated, evidence-based cancer care and clinical research with 15 locations throughout Maryland.
