Patient-centred surgical planning for breast cancer, including breast-conserving surgery, mastectomy and lymph-node evaluation for patients across Tricity.
Breast cancer treatment is planned according to tumour size, location, stage, lymph-node involvement, biological markers, breast size, patient health and individual preferences.
Surgery is an important part of treatment for many patients. Depending on the case, treatment may involve breast-conserving surgery, mastectomy, lymph-node evaluation and coordination with chemotherapy, radiation, hormonal therapy or targeted therapy.
Dr. Vijay Bansal provides a personalised surgical plan after reviewing imaging, biopsy findings, receptor status and the overall cancer treatment strategy.
The best operation is selected after balancing cancer safety, breast anatomy and patient preference.
Removal of the tumour with a safe margin while preserving as much breast tissue as possible.
Removal of the breast when conservation is unsuitable or not preferred.
Assessment of the first draining lymph nodes in selected patients.
Planning surgery after tumour response to preoperative treatment.
Evaluation of selected cancers that return after previous treatment.
Breast-conserving surgery may be suitable when the tumour can be removed with a clear margin while preserving an acceptable amount of healthy breast tissue.
A structured pathway from diagnosis and staging to surgery and long-term follow-up.
Review mammography, ultrasound, biopsy and receptor status.
Assess tumour size, lymph nodes and need for additional imaging.
Decide whether surgery or preoperative treatment should come first.
Review final pathology and coordinate radiation, medicines or surveillance.
Breast cancer care may involve surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, hormonal therapy or targeted treatment. The sequence depends on stage, receptor status, tumour biology and treatment response.
