Breast Surgery

Breast surgery encompasses a range of procedures performed to diagnose, treat, and manage both benign (non-cancerous) and malignant (cancerous) breast conditions. It plays a vital role in the treatment of breast cancer, the removal of suspicious or symptomatic breast lumps, and, in some cases, preventive care for individuals at higher genetic risk

Common Reasons for Breast Surgery:

  • Breast cancer (invasive or non-invasive)

  • Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS)

  • Benign breast lumps such as fibroadenomas

  • Abnormal biopsy findings

  • Symptomatic breast cysts

  • Risk-reducing (prophylactic) surgery in high-risk patients

Surgical Procedures

Mastectomy

A mastectomy involves the removal of part or all of the breast to treat or prevent breast cancer. Learn more about different types and what to expect before and after surgery.

Fibroadenoma

A fibroadenoma is a common, non-cancerous breast lump that often affects younger women. Discover when monitoring is needed and surgical removal may be recommended.

Axillary Surgery

Axillary surgery assesses whether breast cancer has spread to the lymph nodes under the arm. Find out more.
