General Surgery Specialist Dr. Emran Kuzey Avcı at Gazi Hospital gave a message of awareness about breast cancer, which carries a risk of occurring in one out of every 8 women.
What is the most important preventive?
Of course, self-examination and annual radiological (Mammography/Ultrasound) screenings. A tumor caught when there are no symptoms saves the patient's life.
Does breast loss occur after surgery?
Today, 'Breast Conserving Surgery' is at the forefront. That is, we can remove only the tumor and leave the breast in place. With oncoplastic surgical techniques, we both treat the cancer and protect the aesthetic appearance of the breast.
Why Gazi Hospital?
Because we don't just perform surgery here; we evaluate the patient with a council understanding as Oncology, Radiology, and General Surgery. We believe that psychological support and surgical success are a whole in the fight against breast cancer.
