About Our Breast Oncology Department

Our Breast Oncology Department at THANC Hospital in Kilpauk, Chennai offers complete care for breast cancer, supported by advanced diagnostic imaging, modern surgical facilities, and coordinated oncology services. We focus on accurate diagnosis and individualized treatment planning.

When to Consult Our Breast Oncology Team

Early evaluation leads to better outcomes. Speak to our team if you notice any of these:

A breast lump or thickening

Any new or persistent breast lump needs evaluation with clinical examination, imaging, and — if needed — biopsy.

Nipple discharge or skin changes

Bloody discharge, nipple retraction, or skin dimpling are red-flag signs that deserve prompt assessment.

Abnormal screening mammogram

Structured follow-up of abnormal mammograms prevents delayed diagnosis and over-treatment.

Family history of breast or ovarian cancer

Strong family history may warrant earlier screening and, in selected cases, genetic evaluation.

Breast pain affecting daily life

Most breast pain is benign but persistent pain deserves evaluation for reassurance and targeted treatment.

Second opinion on a breast cancer diagnosis

A multidisciplinary second opinion helps ensure the treatment plan is the best fit for your situation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is every breast lump cancer?

No — most breast lumps are benign. Structured evaluation with imaging and, when needed, needle biopsy reliably distinguishes benign from cancerous lumps and guides the right treatment.

Can breast cancer be treated without removing the whole breast?

Often yes. Many breast cancers are treated with breast-conserving surgery followed by radiation. The right choice depends on tumour size, location, and patient preference — decided together.

How important is multidisciplinary review?

Very important. Modern breast cancer care is a team effort between surgical, medical, and radiation oncology, radiology, pathology, and reconstructive surgery. THANC runs a structured tumour board for every case.

Is reconstruction done at the same time as cancer surgery?

In many cases, yes. Immediate reconstruction gives excellent aesthetic outcomes and avoids a second operation. The right approach depends on tumour characteristics and patient factors.

Will THANC give me a written estimate for breast cancer treatment?

Yes. After complete evaluation, our team shares a written, itemised estimate covering surgery, anaesthesia, and inpatient stay. THANC's rates are consistently below prevailing Chennai market rates.
