What is Breast Lump Surgery?
A breast lump is a swelling or mass in the breast that may occur due to several causes, including cysts, fibroadenomas, infections, hormonal changes, or other breast conditions. While many breast lumps are non-cancerous, proper evaluation is important to determine the cause.
Breast Lump Surgery involves removing a breast lump when surgery is medically appropriate. The procedure may be recommended based on the lump's size, growth, symptoms, examination findings, imaging results, or biopsy findings.
At KK Swara Super Speciality Hospital in Boduppal, patients receive comprehensive breast evaluation and surgical care with appropriate investigations, specialist consultation, and follow-up.

How is Breast Lump Surgery Managed?
Breast lump treatment is tailored to the type, size, location, and characteristics of the lump, along with the patient's overall health.
Clinical Breast Evaluation
A specialist evaluates the lump through medical history, physical examination, and assessment of associated breast symptoms.
Imaging & Diagnostic Tests
Depending on age and clinical findings, investigations such as ultrasound, mammography, or other breast imaging may be recommended.
Biopsy When Required
A tissue sample may be advised when further evaluation is needed to determine the nature of the breast lump.
Surgical Removal
When surgery is recommended, the lump is removed through an appropriate breast-conserving surgical approach whenever suitable.
Laboratory Examination
The removed tissue may be sent for histopathological examination to establish an accurate diagnosis.
Follow-up Care
Post-operative follow-up helps monitor healing, review results, and determine whether any additional treatment or monitoring is required.
