Metastatic Breast Cancer: Prognosis, Symptoms, and Treatment

Metastatic breast cancer, usually defined as stage IV cancer, is a form of breast cancer that has spread beyond the breast and to other body parts and tissues. The spreading of these cancerous cells usually starts at the nearby lymph nodes and can continue to other areas such as distant lymph nodes, bones, liver, lungs, and in some cases, even the brain. Although breast cancer is considered the most common form of cancer in women, the rate of women with metastatic breast cancer continues to decrease, primarily due to early screening and more accurate diagnostics. Although the prognosis of metastatic breast cancer has no cure, treatment options do exist, and stage 4 breast cancer survival rates continue to improve as treatment aims to stop or slow down the spreading of the cancer.

Latest Treatments for Hodgkin’s Lymphoma in Israel

Cancer Survivors Describe Their Experiences Receiving the Latest Treatments for Hodgkin’s Lymphoma in Israel

Learn how, with the help of Sheba Medical Center, Georgii and Maxim won their fight by receiving the latest treatments for Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.

Hodgkin’s lymphoma is a type of cancer that originates in the lymphatic system, which transports lymph, a fluid that contains disease-fighting white blood cells, and circulates through the body, much like blood does. In Hodgkin’s lymphoma, the cancerous cells originate from lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell that is part of the immune system, which undergoes a genetic mutation. The mutation tells the cell to multiply rapidly, generating many diseased cells that continue multiplying. This results in a large number of oversized, abnormal lymphocytes accumulating in the lymphatic system, where they crowd out healthy cells and cause the signs and symptoms of Hodgkin’s lymphoma. While Hodgkin’s lymphoma can affect people of any age, it is most common in people between the ages of 20 and 40, and those over 55. The latest treatments for Hodgkin’s lymphoma include chemotherapy, targeted therapy, radiation therapy, and bone marrow transplantation.
