However, if breast nodules do not respond to drug treatment and there is a lump that grows rapidly or becomes hard in a short period of time, the possibility of cancer should be highly suspected. If necessary, a biopsy or simple mastectomy should be performed. If cancer cells are found in frozen sections during surgery, the patient should be treated as having breast cancer.
