Breast Surgery
Breast lumps may be benign or malignant. It is important that they are comprehensively assessed by a thorough history and physical examination followed by imaging with tissue biopsy. Changes within the breast for example the development of a lump, swelling, skin changes, nipple discharge or pain are important reasons to see a specialist breast surgeon. Abnormal findings detected on mammogram screening will also need to be thoroughly investigated.
Breast augmentation, also known as augmentation mammoplasty, can be performed for cosmetic enhancement or as part of reconstructive surgery, such as correcting a congenital chest deformity like tuberous breast deformity or pectus excavatum. The procedure involves placing implants beneath the breast tissue to increase breast size.
