A 53-year-old woman from Ahilyanagar (Ahmednagar) noticed a lump in her breast and consulted her local doctor. A biopsy confirmed breast cancer. Due to the complexity of the case, she was referred to Dr. Manoj Dongare, Senior Cancer Surgeon at DY Patil Hospital, Pune. After a thorough evaluation and staging workup, Dr. Dongare planned a Modified Radical Mastectomy to remove the cancer and affected lymph nodes.
- The surgery was done successfully
- No major complications occurred
- She recovered well and was discharged on Postoperative Day 5
She has now been referred to a medical oncologist to start post-surgery chemotherapy. This case highlights the importance of early detection and expert surgical care, especially for women from rural areas with limited access to advanced cancer treatment.
Importance of Early Breast Cancer Surgery:
Timely diagnosis and surgery not only improve survival but also enhance quality of life. For women from smaller towns like Ahmednagar, access to expert surgeons like Dr. Manoj Dongare ensures world-class care is within reach.
