Breast cancer is a disease in which cells in the breast grow out of control. Breast cancer cells usually form a tumor that can often be seen on an x-ray or felt as a lump. Breast cancer occurs almost entirely in women, but men can get breast cancer, too. The most common kinds of breast cancer are invasive ductal carcinoma and invasive breast cancer (ILC or IDC).
