Cancer is curable, when detected early and treated effectively.
Breast cancer surgery is a crucial part of treatment for most patients diagnosed with breast cancer. It involves removing the cancerous tumor from the breast and, in some cases, nearby lymph nodes. The goal is to eliminate the cancer and reduce the risk of recurrence—while preserving the appearance and function of the breast as much as possible.
