The Breathe Foundation and Catwalk Models International created awareness on breast cancer \u2014 specifically breast cancer in men \u2014 at the De Ville Centre in Durbanville on Saturday 25 October.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women in South Africa, accounting for 14 to 23,2% of all female cancers,” says Silvia Craucamp, chief executive officer of the Breathe Foundation and a sister in oncology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“While incidence rates vary between different population groups, the country has a higher breast cancer death rate than wealthier nations, often due to late diagnosis, limited healthcare access and more aggressive cancer subtypes. The lifetime risk of developing breast cancer is approximately 1 in 27 for South African women,” she says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Variation by race<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

“While white women have a higher incidence rate, coloured women may be diagnosed at a later stage \u2014 possibly due to poor access to screening and treatment, according to Statistics South Africa,” she says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“White women have a higher incidence rate (around 1 in 13), similar to Western countries, while African women have a lower rate (around 1 in 81), similar to Japan. Risk increases with age, but many women under 40 are also diagnosed,” Craucamp says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The more aggressive triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is more commonly diagnosed in younger women and can be harder to treat, according to Statistics South Africa,” she says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Male breast cancer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

“In South Africa, male breast cancer accounts for approximately 1,8% to 3% of all breast cancer cases, which is higher than the global average of less than 1%,” she says. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Dr Johan Blomerus from SCP Radiology on the website of Statistics South Africa, black men have higher incidence rates for all breast cancer subtypes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Invasive ductal carcinoma is the most common type, and the survival rate is often lower than for women, emphasising the importance of early detection,” according to the article. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Survival<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

“The overall survival rate for men with breast cancer is currently lower compared to women \u2014 highlighting the need for early diagnosis and treatment,” according the article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Advice for breast cancer includes regular screening, starting in your 20s, with clinical exams every one to three years until age 40, then annually. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After 40, get an annual mammogram and clinical exam, and be aware of any breast changes, such as lumps or skin dimpling. To reduce risk, maintain a healthy lifestyle, stay physically active, manage weight and limit alcohol, while also considering family history and genetic risk factors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
