[Progress of diagnosis and treatment of precancerous pathological lesions of mammary cancer].
Prevention and treatment of mammary cancer has been taken into great account recently. "Mutistage developing mode" provides the basis for interrupting and reversing precancerous changes. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has shown effects on precancerous changes through inhibiting angiogenesis, promoting apoptosis, modulating endocrine system and restraining oncogene expression. It was stressed in this review that TCM should study the precancerous change of mammary cancer from the aspects of recognizing the essence of precancerous changes of mammary cancer, formulating the standard of TCM diagnosis and treatment, widening the aim of treatment, and focusing on the mechanism of Chinese herbal medicine in intervening it.
