ACTUAL ISSUES OF MASTOPATHY DIAGNOSTICS IN LARGE INDUSTRIAL CITY OF CHELYABINSK REGION

Abstract

Urban ecological problems are associated with industrial pollution emissions, waste of metallurgical production, unhealthy lifestyle and reproductive behavior lead to a steady rise in cancer pathology in theChelyabinskregion. Women in early reproductive age living in areas of ecological concern with suspected mastopathies, exhibit significantly higher levels of tumor markers associated with the tumor cell membranes of (CA19-9, SA15-5, CA125), CEA (carcinoembryonic antigen). Therefore, it seems necessary to perform massive laboratory programs for oncological screening, especially, among young working population, in order to identify breast diseases, and to arrange appropriate risk groups at this basis, aiming for development of effective preventive measures for the future.
