What is Breast Lump Excision?

Breast lump excision is also known as lumpectomy. It is a procedure performed to remove suspicious lumps or growths that might or might not be carcinogenic. This treatment helps to confirm a cancer diagnosis, or rule it out. It can also be a treatment option for some women with early-stage breast cancer. Whether or not this procedure can be performed will be subject to the doctor’s examination of the size and stage of the tumor, patients’ conditions as well as the size of the breasts.

How It Works

In the procedure, a small incision will be made on the breasts and the lump/growths together with some of the normal breast tissues around it will be removed. An examination will be conducted on the sample of the removed tissue. If no cancer cells are found near the edges of the removed tissue, then this is called a clear margin.
