A step-by-step look at what happens during this procedure.
Comprehensive evaluation of tumor size, location, and breast volume to plan the optimal oncoplastic approach combining cancer removal with reconstruction techniques.
Complete removal of the tumor with adequate safety margins, ensuring all cancerous tissue is extracted while planning for immediate reconstruction.
Plastic surgery techniques are applied to reshape remaining breast tissue, redistributing volume to maintain natural breast contour and symmetry.
Contralateral breast may be adjusted through reduction, lift, or augmentation to achieve symmetrical appearance with the operated breast.
Careful closure with attention to aesthetic outcomes, positioning incisions along natural breast lines and ensuring optimal healing for minimal scarring.
A structured, patient-first approach from first consultation to full recovery.
Dr P Prakash conducts thorough consultation including 3D imaging and tumor mapping to design a customized oncoplastic approach that balances cancer clearance with aesthetic goals.
Utilizing state-of-the-art oncoplastic methods including volume displacement and replacement techniques, ensuring complete tumor removal while maintaining breast shape and size.
Close collaboration with oncologists, radiologists, and pathologists to ensure comprehensive cancer treatment while optimizing reconstruction outcomes for each patient.
Comprehensive follow-up care with regular monitoring, scar management guidance, and coordination with adjuvant therapies to support complete recovery and optimal results.
What to expect at each stage of your recovery journey.
First 1-2 weeks involve rest, pain management, and wound care. Surgical drains monitor fluid collection. Arm movement may be restricted. Regular dressing changes and monitoring for complications are essential.
Weeks 2-4 focus on gradual activity resumption. Drains removed, light exercises begin. Swelling and bruising subside. Follow-up appointments ensure proper healing. Supportive garments worn continuously.
Weeks 4-12 see return to most activities. Scars mature and fade. Breast shape settles into final position. Any adjuvant therapy begins. Final aesthetic results become apparent over 6-12 months.
Oncoplastic techniques allow for wider excision margins, reducing the risk of positive margins and need for re-excision while ensuring comprehensive tumor removal.
Integration of plastic surgery principles results in natural-looking breasts with maintained volume, shape, and symmetry, significantly better than traditional lumpectomy alone.
Single-stage procedure combining cancer removal and reconstruction minimizes the need for additional surgeries, reducing overall treatment burden and improving patient satisfaction.
Patients experience better body image, psychological well-being, and confidence compared to traditional breast-conserving surgery, with equivalent oncological safety.
