Breast Oncoplasty Level 2

Breast Oncoplasty level 2 Surgery

Oncoplasty is a type of surgery that combines ways to treat cancer with ways to reconstruct and improve the look of the breast. After a mastectomy, level 2 oncoplasty is a type of breast reconstruction that can be done (surgery to remove the breast).

During a level 2 oncoplasty, a tissue expander is usually used to stretch the skin and make a pocket for an implant. A balloon-like device called a tissue expander is put under the skin and slowly filled with saline (saltwater) to stretch the skin and make room for an implant. This could take weeks or months, and you may have to go to the doctor’s office more than once to have the expander filled.

Once the skin has been stretched to the right size, the tissue expander is usually taken out and a permanent breast implant is put in its place during a second surgery. The implant can be filled with saline or silicone gel, depending on what the person wants and what the surgeon thinks is best.

Level 2 oncoplastic can help restore the breast’s shape and appearance after a mastectomy. It may also help a person feel better about themselves and improve their quality of life. It’s important to remember that breast reconstruction is a major surgery with risks like infection, bleeding, and scarring. Before making a decision, you should carefully think about the pros and cons of the surgery and talk about them with your healthcare team.

Why Breast Oncoplasty level 2 is done??

Breast oncoplasty level 2 is often done after a mastectomy to rebuild the breast (surgery to remove the breast). The goal of the surgery is to improve a person’s self-esteem and quality of life by fixing the shape and look of their breasts.

When 20-50% of the breast volume needs to be taken out, level 2 oncoplastic techniques are used.

Most of the time, a mastectomy is needed to treat breast cancer, and it may be suggested for people with advanced cancer or a high chance of getting it back. People with inflammatory breast cancer or Paget’s disease of the breast, which both affect the breast, may also be told to get a mastectomy.

Some people who have had a mastectomy decide to have breast reconstruction surgery to fix the shape and look of the breast. There are different ways to reconstruct the breasts, and the way that is used will depend on the person’s situation and the surgeon’s preferences. Level 2 oncoplasty is one way to think about for breast reconstruction.

Health benefits of Breast Oncoplasty level 2

Breast oncoplasty, which is also called “breast reconstruction after cancer surgery,” is a surgery that fixes the shape and look of the breast after a mastectomy or lumpectomy (surgical removal of a breast lump). The goal of breast oncoplasty is to make a breast that looks natural and is the same size as the other breast.

Breast oncoplasty could be good for your health in a number of ways, such as:

Improving body image and self-esteem: Losing a breast can be a traumatic event that can have a big effect on a person’s sense of self and body image. Breast reconstruction can help a person feel better about their body and restore the look of their breasts.

Improving physical comfort: Breast reconstruction can help restore the breast’s natural shape, which can make wearing clothes and doing physical activities more comfortable.

Reducing the need for prosthetics: Some people who have had a mastectomy or lumpectomy may choose to use a breast prosthesis (artificial breast) to help restore the look of the breast. With breast reconstruction, you may not need a prosthesis, which can be uncomfortable and needs to be replaced often.

Improving the quality of life: Breast reconstruction can help people who have had surgery for breast cancer feel more confident and sure of themselves. This can make their lives better overall and let them take part in activities and relationships more fully.

It’s important to remember that breast oncoplasty is a complicated surgery that isn’t right for everyone. To figure out if breast reconstruction is a good choice for you, you should talk to a qualified breast surgeon about the possible risks and benefits.

Breast Cancer Patient’s Journey

IS A GOOD WORD

First of all, I would like to thank Dr. Mansi Cowhan for the effort she made to remove a tumor and lymph nodes from the breast of the patient Rawaa Abd Abbas from Iraq, and to follow up on the patient’s condition and gave her the right medical instructions after the operation. Now patient is in a very good health. My advice for all patients who are suffering from breast cancer is to visit Dr Mansi Chowhan she has a very good knowledge and experience in her field .Thank you to Dr Mansi.

Ms. Rawaa Abd Abbas & Mr. Muthanna kareem Alobaidi

Dr. Mansi Chowhan, my wife’s breast cancer surgeon, empathized with my wife’s condition. She gave us the technical details in understandable language. She made it clear that the approach was primarily redemptive. She was happy with us when the tests came out favorable. She was sad with us for unfavourable pointers. She was caring throughout the process. We wish that she will bring such care and comfort to many more cancer patients.

I was diagnosed with DCIS. My gynaecologist Dr.Anjali Kumar whom I have known for 12 years and trust her completely, recommended Dr Mansi Chowhan to me. I am very happy that I took the decision of getting my breast surgery done from Dr.Mansi. She is very warm, polite and understands the emotional state of a patient. She explained to me in detail what exactly will be her plan of action. I went for other opinions too but Dr. Mansi was the only doctor who didn’t ask for unnecessary tests and procedures like MRI and Biopsy. Luckily, the lump in my breast was benign. I am grateful to her for handling my case so efficiently and would highly recommend her for breast surgery.

Dr Mansi Chowhan Dr. Mansi is one of the finest, sweetest and humble doctor I have ever met! I think she follows the rule to not overcomit and under deliver. During the period of my mother’s breast cancer consultation, treatment and surgery, she was sometimes upfront for few things, which we as Patient’s family took time to digest. But I really admire and appreciate all the support that Dr. Mansi and team extended during the entire period of pre & post surgery. And the kind of tumor removal + breast conservation surgery that she has done with her magical hands is commendable. I had so many negative thoughts before the surgery, but looking at the result and my mother recovering day by day…I can’t thank her enough for doing such wonders in saving her breast and her life! ❤

Our gratitude towards Dr Mansi Chowhan, my wife’s treating doctor cannot be expressed in words. She diagnosed my wife’s breast cancer and took great care throughout her journey from biopsy to breast surgery to chemotherapy now. To our great relief, a breast conservation surgery was done. She is exceptionally efficient and compassionate towards her patients. Highly recommended for any breast lump or cancer.
