Lumpectomy In Noida

Consuming high-calorie foods, obesity, sedentary lifestyles, delayed childbirth, and reduced breastfeeding have raised the risk of breast lumps among women living in Noida. The increasing rate of breast lumps has caused growing awareness, and thus, breast conservation surgeries have become acceptable among Noida residents. Lumpectomy is a breast cancer treatment surgery to remove lumps and some of the healthy tissues in the surrounding area of the breast, while keeping the breast intact. It is an early-stage breast cancer treatment option, also called a partial mastectomy.

If you’re considering a lumpectomy in Noida, Bhardwaj Hospital is the ideal choice. We have a breast cancer surgery team of trained surgeons and oncologists, who use advanced imaging and biopsy techniques to detect lumps and remove them from your breast by preserving healthy tissue without distorting breast appearance. Our oncological surgeons also perform radiation therapy after lumpectomy to minimise the risk of the return of cancer.

How do you know that you need a Lumpectomy?

Our hospital has the best infrastructure for lumpectomy in Noida. Our breast cancer specialists detect lumps through the following process, before suggesting a lumpectomy.

Our lumpectomy surgeons perform a physical examination through mammogram, ultrasound, or MRI.
We also conduct a biopsy to confirm if the lump is cancerous or in the early stage (stage 0-II)

If our oncological surgeons identify that your lump is localised and can be removed without removing the whole breast, then lumpectomy is recommended.

We only perform lumpectomy after your willing consent to undergo radiation therapy post-surgery to restrict the cancer from spreading and returning.

Lumpectomy or Mastectomy - What’s right for you?

Both lumpectomy and mastectomy are breast cancer treatment surgeries. However, the surgery depends on the tumor size and stage. Hence, only a thorough diagnosis can tell you whether you need a lumpectomy or mastectomy for your breast lumps.

Our surgeons recommend a lumpectomy if the following criteria are met:

Your breast lump is small, and there is no spread of cancer to other parts of the breast.
You agree with us performing radiation therapy after the surgery and prefer breast preservation.

On the contrary, we advise mastectomy if

You have large tumours in different parts of your breast
You have inflammatory breast cancer
You have widespread ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), which means cancer cells are found within the milk ducts as well.

Procedure of Lumpectomy at Bhardwaj Hospital

We at Bhardwaj Hospital conduct the best lumpectomy in Noida with complete surgical stages from pre-surgery to post-surgery care. We use advanced technologies and equipment for a high success rate.

Pre-Operative Consultation and Evaluation

Before the surgery, our oncological surgeons conduct a thorough diagnosis, where clinical breast examination, imaging tests, blood tests, and biopsies are performed. Our team of oncological surgeons and anaesthesiologists consult with patients to plan the surgery and explain the whole process. We then conduct a pre-anaesthesia check-up (like hypertension, asthma, or diabetes) before undergoing lumpectomy to evaluate whether the patient is medically fit to undergo surgery.

Our medical staff also checks for vital signs like oxygen saturation, temperature, blood pressure, and heart rate. We further conduct specific laboratory tests, such as a complete blood count for anaemia, and a coagulation profile to examine the risks of internal bleeding or clotting. Even after this, if you have any queries regarding the surgery, our experienced oncological surgeons are here to address them patiently.

Lumpectomy Surgery Day

On the day of surgery, our team of expert oncological surgeons, anaesthetists, nurses, and surgical assistants coherently focuses on maintaining surgical accuracy, patient safety, and comfort for the successful completion of the procedure. Vital signs are again checked before proceeding with the anaesthesia to check the patient’s condition. We use pre-surgical imaging guidance, like wire location or radio-guided seed placement, to locate small or easily palpable lumps in the breast. Once the lumps are detected, using sterile drapes and antiseptics, the surgical site is thoroughly cleaned..

After that, our oncological surgeons make a minor incision over or near the lump strategically, often following the natural lines of the breast, to minimize the chances of scarring. Then, they carefully remove only the lump along the healthy tissue margin so that it does not hamper breast shape, keeping the appearance original. Lastly, our staff close the wound with sterile dressings.

After the surgery, patients are transferred to the post-anaesthesia care unit, where our nurses monitor the patients’ vitals and consciousness level. Once patients gain stability, they are shifted to the private room or recovery wing.

Cancer Testing for Removed Tissue

After removing lumps, our surgeons extract some surrounding tissues and send them to the lab for cancer clearance. The wound is closed, and a sterile dressing is applied if negative. But if the lab report shows a positive result for cancer in the removed tissues post-surgery, then our surgeons will conduct a sentinel lymph node biopsy to test the lymph nodes for cancer..

Patient-Surgeon Interaction Post-Lumpectomy

After cancer testing post-lumpectomy, our oncological surgeons patiently explain the type of cancer found, its stage, whether the tumour is eliminated or additional surgery is required, and lastly, the treatment options available. In our hospital, we offer radiation therapy (starts 2 to 4 weeks after surgery, regularly for 3 to 6 weeks) to destroy remaining cancer cells in the breast. Our oncological surgeons perform re-excision or a second surgery to remove cancer cells near the breast margins. We even recommend hormonal therapy if the cancer is hormone receptor positive, and targeted therapy if the tumor is HER2-positive (and chemotherapy is also performed alongside).

Supportive Care

We at Bhardwaj Hospital not only physically perform lumpectomy but also provide supportive care and counselling post-surgery. For emotional coping of patients, we perform oncology counselling; for their smooth healing and regaining strength, we give personalised diet plans; and to monitor for cancer or tumour recurrence, we schedule regular follow-up sessions.
