Abstract

Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed malignancy among women worldwide. While most cases are detected through screening programs or symptomatic presentation, incidental detection in non-traditional settings remains underreported. We describe two cases in which breast cancer was incidentally identified by non-physician healthcare providers during unrelated clinical encounters. These cases underscore the potential role of allied healthcare staff in facilitating early diagnosis and timely management, particularly in asymptomatic individuals.
