Breast Surgery
format_list_bulletedAbout this section add remove
The mainstay of breast surgery is focused around the investigation and management of breast cancer, however other conditions such as gynaecomastia and mastalgia can be caused by non-oncological reasons.
The breasts are paired structures located on the anterior thoracic wall, in the pectoral region, present in both males and females, albeit more prominent in females following puberty. In females, the breasts contain the mammary glands, which are the accessory glands of the female reproductive system, key structures involved in lactation.
