It is a tumor of the breast. It will be removed and most women are fine after this is done. It could be a benign or cancerous tumor so actually your friend may just have a harmless tumor but it will still need to be removed. Women should do self checks to look for unusual lumps.

Mastoma is a malignant, neoplastic cell. It is treated by inhibiting glucose from being transported into the cell. This is done by administering phlorizin, while concurrently administering adjunct therapy such as heat, radiation or chemotherapy.
