Breast Cancer: Real-Life Clinical Scenarios
Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers affecting women worldwide, characterized by the uncontrolled growth of cells in the breast tissue. Early detection through regular screenings, such as mammograms, significantly improves the chances of successful treatment. Common symptoms include a lump in the breast, changes in breast shape or size, and nipple discharge. Treatment options vary depending on the stage of cancer and may include surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, and targeted therapies. Advances in personalized medicine and genetic testing have also improved treatment outcomes, making breast cancer more manageable when detected early. Awareness and self-examinations are key in early diagnosis and improving survival rates.

Massive Transfusion Protocol
Massive Transfusion Protocol (MTP) is a standardized medical procedure activated in cases of severe hemorrhage, typically involving the rapid administration of large volumes of blood products. The goal is to restore circulating volume, maintain hemostasis, and prevent the lethal triad of hypothermia, acidosis, and coagulopathy. MTP usually involves a balanced ratio of packed red blood cells, plasma, and platelets, often in a 1:1:1 ratio. Early activation and coordination among trauma teams, laboratory services, and blood banks are essential for its success.
