Breast Cyst
The ultrasound showed a simple cyst - can it turn into cancer?
Doktorun Cevabı:
Simple cysts are usually benign structures and do not tend to become cancerous. However, depending on the cyst's size, structure and the presence of any symptoms, follow-up is important. For a definitive evaluation, the best approach is to see your doctor and keep up with regular check-ups.
