Breast Routine Examinations & Surgery

When it comes to breast cancer, early detection and treatment is key. That’s why our medical facility offers expert breast surgery services for the removal of cancerous tumors.

Frequent breast cancer checks are important for several reasons. First and foremost, early detection is key in treating and beating breast cancer. The earlier the cancer is found, the better the chances of survival. Breast cancer screenings, such as mammograms and clinical breast exams, can detect breast cancer in its early stages, when it is most treatable.

Our team of highly skilled and experienced doctors are trained in the latest techniques for breast cancer surgery, including lumpectomy, mastectomy, and reconstructive surgery. We use state-of-the-art equipment and the most advanced technology to ensure safe and effective treatment.

We understand that a breast cancer diagnosis can be a difficult and emotional time for patients and their families. That’s why we take the time to explain the procedure, answer any questions, and provide support throughout the entire process.

Our team is dedicated to providing personalized care and attention to detail to ensure the best possible outcome. We work closely with radiologists, oncologists and other specialists to provide a comprehensive approach to breast cancer treatment.

In addition to breast surgeries, we also provide advanced ultrasound and biopsy services for thorough diagnosis, which are an essential part of breast cancer care.

Some common side effects of breast cancer are:

  • Fatigue
  • Pain or discomfort in the breast or armpit
  • Swelling or hardening of the breast
  • Nipple discharge or changes in the nipple or breast skin
  • Lumps or masses in the breast or armpit
  • Changes in the size or shape of the breast
  • Itching, rash, or redness of the breast or nipple
  • Swelling of the lymph nodes under the arm or around the collarbone
  • Changes in sensation or numbness in the breast or arm
  • Fatigue, nausea, hair loss, and other symptoms related to chemotherapy or radiation therapy.

It’s important to note that some of these symptoms may not be caused by breast cancer and can also be caused by other conditions. If you experience any of these symptoms, it is important to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Breast Ultrasound & Biopsy

Breast ultrasound is an important diagnostic tool in detecting and monitoring breast cancer. Ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of the inside of the breast, and it is a non-invasive and painless procedure.

One of the main reasons why breast ultrasound is important is that it can detect breast cancer in women with dense breast tissue. Dense breast tissue can make it harder for mammograms to detect cancer, but ultrasound can provide a clearer image. This is particularly important for women who have dense breast tissue, as they are at a higher risk of developing breast cancer.

Another reason why breast ultrasound is important is that it can help to identify any changes in the breast tissue. Breast tissue naturally changes over time, but some changes may indicate the presence of cancer. By regularly using ultrasound, you can become familiar with how the breast tissue looks and can identify any unusual changes.

Breast ultrasound can also be used to monitor any changes in breast tissue after a breast cancer diagnosis, and to check for any recurrence of cancer after treatment. It can also be used to monitor the effectiveness of any treatments given to a patient.

Another important use of breast ultrasound is to differentiate between cysts and solid lumps. Ultrasound can help to identify whether a lump is a cyst (a fluid-filled sac) or a solid mass, and this information can help in deciding the next step of management. In some cases, ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) can be done during the ultrasound scan to diagnose the lump.

In addition to its diagnostic use, breast ultrasound can also be used for certain interventions such as ultrasound-guided breast biopsy. This procedure uses ultrasound imaging to guide the biopsy needle to the specific area of concern in the breast.

In conclusion, breast ultrasound is an important diagnostic tool in detecting and monitoring breast cancer. It can detect breast cancer in women with dense breast tissue, help to identify any changes in the breast tissue, monitor any changes after a breast cancer diagnosis, differentiate between cysts and solid lumps and monitor the effectiveness of any treatments given to a patient. It is a non-invasive and painless procedure that can provide vital information for the management of breast cancer. Moreover, ultrasound can be used for certain interventions, such as ultrasound-guided breast biopsy, providing an alternative to surgical biopsies.
