Lumpectomy Radiation Therapy

Lumpectomy is an operation to remove the affected breast DCIS and limit the surrounding healthy tissue. This procedure allows the patient to retain as much as possible the healthy breast, depending on many networks are eliminated. To treat DCIS, simple Mastectomy is done by removing the breast tissue, skin, areola, nipple, and probably in the axillary lymph nodes (sentinel node biopsy). After Mastectomy, breast reconstruction can be done if desired. Because lumpectomy combined with radiation has been quite effective in treating DCIS. Radiation therapy uses high energy rays to kill cancer cells, such as X-rays. 

Radiation therapy after lumpectomy reduces the possibility of DCIS will recur or progress to invasive cancer. Radiation is usually used after a lumpectomy. However, in some female patients, radiation is not required if the area of ​​DCIS is still considered to be small and really gone after the surgery, or in older women with certain health problems. Signs of Breast Cancer Early Symptoms of Breast Cancer. See Alternative Treatment Options Breast Cancer Pain. Among the biggest cancer killer of women in the world is breast cancer. Actually, people with breast cancer can be cured. Mortality risk can be minimized, if cancer is detected early. For that as a woman you should know the early symptoms of breast cancer. One of them is by paying attention to the emergence of abnormal cells in the milk ducts in the breast or the so-called Ductal Carsinoma in Situ (DCIS). DCIS is considered as the earliest form of breast cancer. DCIS is noninvasive means has not spread beyond the milk ducts and invade other parts of the breast. In addition, DCIS is usually found by mammogram procedure which is part of the breast cancer screening.

Lumpectomy Biopsy

Special testing is also performed to identify the level of recovery and treatment such as HER2 and oncotyping test. Oncotype is a diagnostic test performed on early-stage cancer. This test will demonstrate the possibility of re-qualification of breast cancer and determine the appropriate type of biopsy. The result will be obtained several days after testing. After breast surgery, a woman must maintain her body condition. Should not lift anything with his hands on the same side as the breast surgery at least one year. Body condition should be kept clean, and should not be moist and must be protected from injury.

This becomes even more critical in case of complications of lymphedema or lymphatic fluid buildup due to node and lymph vessels are blocked / damaged by the surgery. Fluid or lymph nodes is a liquid that is rich in protein, so that in case of injury will very quickly run into the decomposition process. Lymphedema is not uncommon cause of death.

Lumpectomy is usually followed by radiation therapy is standard treatment for women with criteria as above. Larger study showed that women who undergo breast salvage radiation therapy and removal of the breast as a whole has a survival rate that is almost the same. However, further gives results of lumpectomy kosmestik (appearance) of breast is better. Lumpectomy (lumpectomy) is a follow-breast rescue operations, to take / remove the tumor (lump) with normal breast tissue around it. Breast rescue procedures can be performed with anesthesia (anesthetic) local or total.

Surgical lumpectomy was done under anesthesia (anesthetic) local or total and takes between one to two hours. Small metallic clamp will be inserted to mark the area and facilitate therapeutic treatment. Lymph nodes (lymph nodes) will also be examined on the spot, when breast tissue is removed. The incision will be made ​​under the arm or by making a separate incision in the hand.

Lumpectomy Complications

To perform the lumpectomy, or surgical removal of cancer conducted in conjunction with Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SNDB). According to doctors, lumpectomy is recommended because it is young, the size of the cancer under 2 cm and only in one point, as well as breast size is large enough. So minus 2cm was aesthetically not very visible. Lumpectomy versus mastectomy operation or removal of the breast actually have the same effectiveness, if after undergoing surgery to radiation. While SNLB taken to determine the extent of spread of cancer cells in lymph nodes. By knowing the distribution of this cancer, the stage of cancer can be determined, this also affects the methods of treatment and treatment and what type of drug to be used when undergoing chemotherapy. Here is the critical point for making decisions that will affect the duration of subsequent treatment.

SNLB is a surgical procedure using a radioactive dye injection. With this dye, cancer cells will absorb so examined. Then the surgeon will take samples of lymph nodes (in this case taken 3 positions) to be sent to pathology expert. SNLB procedure is increasingly popular because it only takes a few nodes rather than to take a whole that can lead to a complication called lymph edema or swelling of the arm due to fluid that arise after surgery. One of the side effects of this SNLB is precipitated from the milk of water scar stitches. Before oprasi asked not to eat or drink from midnight until morning. The surgery itself is done for 1 hour. Anesthetist to ensure that the required total SNLB anesthetic to prevent pain. There was no effect of dizziness, just a pain in the scar seems to grow stronger so that it will be given pain killer. Operating results will be discussed after 2 weeks later.

This uncontrolled growth causes DNA damage Initially there was a small lump in the breast, because there are no medications that are taken or smeared, eventually a bigger lump it.

Chemotherapy, This is the process of anti-cancer drugs in pill or capsule, or intravenous fluids are aimed at killing cancer cells.

The use of fat and muscle tissue from the patient's body is considered more practical. However, if the tumor is too large cavity of the first, and patients do not have body parts that can be used, he can use breast implants. Implants containing silicone or physiological fluids, such as sodium chloride (NaCl), can be used to reconstruct the breast. On the use of NaCl, the body will react to a minimum so that the relatively more secure. Silicon was chosen because it is elastic, resembling the human breast. Placement of silicone must be careful not to cause harmful reactions in the body. In addition to the procedures, breast reconstruction technology continues to evolve. One of the newest is to develop stem cells that make up breast tissue. In this way, the patient regain the breast naturally.

Lumpectomy and Radiation

One of the most important element in determining the stage of cancer treatment, radiation is determined during the biopsy.

However, the types of treatments available for patients also depends on a number of factors. In early diagnosis, treatment options are available again.

The surgeon may perform surgery with a kind of electric scalpel that uses heat to minimize bleeding.After lumpectomy surgery is completed, the patient will be transferred to the recovery room (recovery room), where health officials will monitor heart rate, body temperature and blood pressure patients. Usually patients do not need to stay in the hospital if only the lumpectomy surgery alone, unless removed lymph nodes involved.

When the patient regained consciousness after lumpectomy surgery (one of the surgical procedure in patients with breast cancer), the surgeon or nurse will give information about the postoperative recovery include: anti-pain medication, caring for bandages.
