What is Breast Tumors?

Breast cancer arises when a cluster of cells within the lobules (milk-producing glands) or ducts undergo abnormal changes, leading to uncontrolled division and harm to the healthy breast tissues. This condition can manifest as either a benign (non-cancerous) tumor or a malignant (cancerous) form of breast cancer.
In the case of a benign breast tumor, there is an abnormal growth of cells, but it remains confined within the breast and does not spread elsewhere in the body. While these benign lumps are not life-threatening, it’s important to note that certain types of benign breast growths may elevate a woman’s susceptibility to developing breast cancer.

Understanding Risk Factors

Several factors can increase the risk of developing breast tumors, including family history, genetics, age, hormonal factors, and lifestyle choices. Understanding these risk factors is crucial for early detection and prevention.

Symptoms of Breast Cancer :

  • Lumps or Masses in the breast
  • Changes in breast size or shape
  • Nipple discharge
  • Pain
  • Skin changes
If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s essential to consult a healthcare professional for evaluation.

What are the types of surgery available for benign breast tumour?

Mastectomy

A mastectomy is surgery to remove a breast. Sometimes other tissues near the breast, such as lymph nodes, are also removed. This surgery is most often used to treat breast cancer. A conventional treatment called total mastectomy which is an invasive surgery, removing the entire breast (either one or both breasts) and usually some underarm lymph nodes. It may require a stay of 5 to 10 days in the hospital. It is often found to be psychologically difficult to accept as the whole breast will be removed, facing cosmetic issue. It may also pose increase risk and difficult in re-operation for recurrent lesions.

Lumpectomy

Lumpectomy is a type of breast conserving surgery which involves surgical removal of the tumour and some of the surrounding tissue while preserving the breast structure. Though this type of surgery is less invasive, yet there may be a scar leaft behind and may cause distortion of breast (change in breast shape). This procedure may also cause damage to the milk duct, affecting breastfeeding in the future.

Vacuum Assisted Biopsy (VAB)

VAB is a type of minimally invasive surgery as compared with the traditional surgical treatment. 1) In this procedure, an automated cutting mechanism cuts the breast tissue repeatedly in several directions, 2) breast tissue will be removed or sucked out through a hollow needle device with a vacuum suction. Doctor will move up and down repeatedly in several directions to cut and remove the abnormal breast tissue until the whole area is covered.

Thermal Ablation for Treating Benign Breast Tumors

Cutting-Edge Thermal Ablation Therapy

Microwave Ablation

Microwave ablation offers a minimally invasive treatment option for benign breast tumors, eliminating the need for surgical incisions or breast tissue removal.
  • Did you know?
Microwave Ablation (MWA) technology has been available in Malaysia since 2012, widely employed by Interventional Radiologists to treat solid cancerous tumors in the liver, lung, kidney, adrenal glands, spleen, bones, and other areas as a minimally invasive cancer therapy.
  • Why Choose Microwave Ablation?
This procedure is precise and safe. Ultrasound is used to precisely locate the tumor and guide the needle placement and ablation process. During the procedure, a doctor inserts a microwave antenna (needle) as small as 1.6mm in diameter through the skin, guided by real-time ultrasound imaging, directly into the tumor. Once in position, microwave energy is activated to effectively eliminate the tumor cells. The procedure leaves behind only a minor needle prick, which quickly heals.
MWA is a rapid day-care procedure, typically taking about 30 minutes, depending on the tumor’s size. Even a tumor with a 3.0cm diameter can be ablated in just 5 minutes. Thanks to advancements in Microwave Technology, it is not limited by tissue type for conductivity, allowing MWA to achieve a larger, more uniform ablation zone in less time.”
