Oncoplastic and Reconstructive Surgery
Oncoplastic and reconstructive surgery are approaches used to treat breast cancer that combine cancer removal with techniques to preserve or restore the breast’s appearance. Oncoplastic surgery involves removing the tumor and surrounding tissue while reshaping the breast to maintain a natural look, often combining cancer surgery with plastic surgery methods. Reconstructive surgery focuses on rebuilding the breast after mastectomy or significant tissue loss, restoring shape and symmetry through procedures like implants or tissue transfer. Both techniques aim to effectively treat cancer while achieving the best possible cosmetic results and patient confidence.
