Kathmandu Cancer Center offers wire localization-guided surgery for breast cancer, an advanced technique designed to accurately locate small or non-palpable breast lesions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here’s a simple explanation of this breast cancer treatment process:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For large breast cancers that haven’t spread far:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Shrinking the tumor first<\/strong>: Doctors give chemotherapy (cancer medicine) to make the tumor smaller before surgery.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Marking the spot<\/strong>: After 2 rounds of chemotherapy, doctors place a tiny marker (like a small clip) inside the tumor. They use ultrasound or mammogram images to guide them to the exact spot.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Getting ready for surgery<\/strong>: After all the chemotherapy is finished, on the day of surgery, doctors put a thin wire into the breast. The wire points to where the tumor is located. A radiologist (imaging doctor) uses mammogram or ultrasound pictures to place the wire in exactly the right spot.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. During surgery<\/strong>: The surgeon follows the wire to find and remove the tumor completely and accurately.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Checking the results<\/strong>: After removing the tumor, doctors take an X-ray picture of the removed tissue (specimen mammogram) to make sure they got all the cancer and that the edges around the tumor are clear of cancer cells.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    This offers hope of possible breast conservation surgery even in locally advanced breast carcinoma after neoadjuvant chemotherapy<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    This step-by-step process helps doctors remove the cancer completely while being as precise as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n

    Expert Quote<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    “Wire localization surgery allows us to save breasts in cases where complete removal was once the only option. This precise technique gives our patients the best possible outcome – both medically and emotionally.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
