Breast Surgical Oncology

Advanced Care for Cancerous and Non-Cancerous Conditions

Breast conditions can significantly impact overall health and quality of life, involving vital aspects such as breast tissue, lymph nodes, skin, and surrounding muscles. Conditions like breast cancer, benign breast tumors, high-risk lesions, male breast disorders, and inflammatory breast disease often require specialized surgical oncology interventions when non-surgical treatments are insufficient. At Al Riaz Health Services, we deeply understand the physical, emotional, and psychological challenges faced by patients undergoing complex breast surgical procedures. It is our mission to support patients every step of the way through diagnosis, surgery, and recovery. We work closely with some of the world’s most renowned Breast Healthcenters and hospitals, combining cutting-edge surgical technology with compassionate, patient-centered care. Our team is committed to ensuring the best possible outcomes for every patient, focusing on early cancer detection, minimally invasive and breast-conserving surgical techniques, and comprehensive post-operative rehabilitation, including cosmetic reconstruction and emotional support. We also prioritize patient comfort, offering unwavering support from the moment a patient enters our care through to full recovery and beyond. With careful planning and personalized surgical treatment plans, we strive to give patients not just freedom from disease, but the confidence and strength to reclaim their daily lives.

  • Not cancer, but LCIS indicates a higher risk of eventually developing breast cancer some time down the road. Often requires close follow-up and sometimes preventive intervention.

    Read More

  • An aggressive subtype missing three typical receptors (ER, PR, HER2). Requires a unique treatment that involves surgery, chemo, and/or immunotherapy.

    Read More

  • Characterized by overexpression of the HER2 protein, which promotes cancer growth. Targeted therapy is often effective when used with surgery.

    Read More

  • A rare, aggressive form of cancer that causes swelling, redness, and heat. Requires immediate treatment and the administration of multiple therapies.

    Read More

  • While rare, breast cancer can develop in men, who may have cancer in the form of a mass, nipple discharge, or change in the skin. Requires urgent treatment and diagnosis.

    Read More

  • Cancer recurrence after some type of treatment. Local, regional, or metastatic—requires updated and specialized management.

    Read More

Your Guide to Breast Health Diagnosis

What Tests Might Be Needed

Being diagnosed with a breast condition—or preparing for surgery—can feel overwhelming. Each test is designed to give your care team a complete picture of the breast tissue, lymph nodes, and overall health to plan the best surgical approach. You may not need all these tests, but we’ve explained the most common ones so you feel confident and prepared. For each test, we answer key questions:
What is it? Why is it done? How does it work? How long does it take? Will it hurt? Our goal is to support you with clear, compassionate guidance throughout your breast surgical care journey.

  • Checking a Small Piece of Tissue

    What is it?
    A biopsy is when we take a tiny bit of tissue—like from a lump or spot—to look at closely.

    Why do we do it?
    It’s the best way to know for sure if cancer is there, what kind it is, and how fast it might grow.

    How does it happen?
    The doctor might use a needle to grab the sample, make a small cut, or use a thin tube with a camera (like for your stomach or lungs). We numb the area so it’s not painful, then send the tissue to a lab where experts check it under a microscope.

    How long does it take?
    The test itself takes 15 minutes to an hour. Results come back in 3-7 days.

    Will it hurt?
    You might feel a quick pinch or some pressure, but the numbing helps a lot. Afterward, it might feel sore, like a bruise, for a day or two.

    What else should I know?
    It’s a big step to getting clear answers—worth it for peace of mind!

  • Looking for Clues in Your Blood

    What are they?
    A simple check of your blood to spot cancer signs.

    Why do we do them?
    They find hints—like special proteins or cell changes—that show if cancer’s there or how it’s behaving. They also check your overall health.

    How do they happen?
    A nurse uses a small needle to take blood from your arm. The lab looks for things like tumor markers or unusual cell counts.

    How long do they take?
    The poke takes 5 minutes. Results come in a few hours to 3 days.

    Will it hurt?
    Just a quick sting—like a mosquito bite. It’s over fast!

    What else should I know?
    It’s an easy way to keep track without big procedures.

  • Exploring Your Cancer’s DNA

    What is it?
    A test to check the DNA in your cancer or blood.

    Why do we do it?
    It finds changes in the cancer that help us pick the best treatments—like medicines made just for you. It can also tell if cancer runs in your family.

    How does it happen?
    We use tissue from a biopsy or sometimes just blood (called a liquid biopsy). A lab studies the DNA for clues.

    How long does it take?
    No extra time for you—it’s all lab work. Results take 1-3 weeks.

    Will it hurt?
    No pain if it’s from a past biopsy. If it’s blood, it’s just another quick draw.

    What else should I know?
    It’s like a secret weapon to fight your cancer smarter!

  • Screening Your Breasts

    What is it?
    An X-ray of your breasts (for women, sometimes men).

    Why do we do it?
    To find breast cancer early, even before you feel a lump.

    How does it happen?
    Your breast is pressed between two plates for a quick picture.

    How long does it take?
    15-20 minutes. Results in a few days.

    Will it hurt?
    It’s tight and uncomfortable for a moment, but not painful.

    What else should I know?
    It’s a key tool for catching breast cancer fast!

  • Sound Waves for Lump Detection

    What is it?
    A non-invasive imaging tool using sound waves to evaluate lumps.

    Why do we do it?
    To distinguish solid masses from fluid-filled cysts.

    How does it happen?
    A gel and handheld device (transducer) are used on the breast.

    How long does it take?
    15–30 minutes.

    Will it hurt?
    No pain—completely safe.

    What else should I know?
    Helpful when mammogram results are unclear.

  • Magnetic Scan for High-Risk Patients

    What is it?
    A powerful imaging tool using magnets to create detailed pictures.

    Why do we do it?
    Used in high-risk patients or for better visualization of complex cases.

    How does it happen?
    The patient lies face-down; contrast dye may be used.

    How long does it take?
    30–60 minutes.

    Will it hurt?
    No pain, but some may feel claustrophobic.

    What else should I know?
    Often used with mammograms for complete diagnosis.

  • 3D Breast Imaging

    What is it?
    An advanced form of mammography creating 3D breast images.

    Why do we do it?
    To improve cancer detection and reduce false positives.

    How does it happen?
    Multiple X-ray images taken from different angles.

    How long does it take?
    15–20 minutes.

    Will it hurt?
    Similar to a traditional mammogram.

    What else should I know?
    Especially beneficial for women with dense breast tissue.

  • Metastasis Check

    What is it?
    A combination of Positron Emission Tomography and CT imaging.

    Why do we do it?
    To detect the spread of cancer to other parts of the body.

    How does it happen?
    A radioactive tracer is injected, and whole-body imaging is done.

    How long does it take?
    1–2 hours.

    Will it hurt?
    No pain; may feel cold sensation from injection.

    What else should I know?
    Useful in staging and treatment planning.

  • Tumor Receptor Testing

    What is it?
    Lab tests on tumor samples to check hormone and HER2 receptor status.

    Why do we do it?
    To determine targeted treatment strategies.

    How does it happen?
    Done after biopsy or surgery.

    How long does it take?
    3–5 days.

    Will it hurt?
    No additional pain—uses existing tissue sample.

    What else should I know?
    Results decide eligibility for hormone and targeted therapies.
