His approach combines surgical precision with aesthetic considerations, ensuring both effective cancer treatment and optimal cosmetic outcomes. This surgery include soft tissue tumors removal from breast.

Breast Surgery:
Breast surgery is often a critical component of breast cancer treatment, and Dr. Sunny Khanna provides a range of surgical options tailored to each patient’s needs, cancer type, and stage. His expertise includes:

1. Lumpectomy (Breast-Conserving Surgery):
For patients in the early stages of breast cancer, Dr. Khanna performs lumpectomies, where only the tumor and a small margin of surrounding tissue are removed. This allows patients to retain most of their breast tissue while still effectively treating the cancer. Dr. Khanna prioritizes preserving the natural shape of the breast during this procedure.

2. Mastectomy:
In cases where more extensive removal of breast tissue is necessary, Dr. Khanna performs mastectomies, which involve the complete removal of one or both breasts to prevent cancer spread. He is skilled in both simple mastectomies and skin-sparing or nipple-sparing mastectomies, which are designed to preserve as much of the breast’s skin as possible for future reconstruction.

3. Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy and Axillary Lymph Node Dissection:
As part of breast cancer surgery, Dr. Khanna evaluates the lymph nodes to determine whether the cancer has spread. He may perform a sentinel lymph node biopsy to identify the first few lymph nodes likely affected by cancer. If necessary, an axillary lymph node dissection is conducted to remove additional lymph nodes.

Oncoplasty:
Oncoplastic surgery is a specialized approach that combines cancer surgery with plastic and reconstructive techniques to enhance the cosmetic outcome after breast cancer surgery. Dr. Sunny Khanna is adept at offering oncoplasty to ensure that his patients not only receive the highest standard of cancer care but also feel confident about their appearance post-surgery. Key aspects of oncoplastic surgery include:

1. Oncoplastic Lumpectomy:
Dr. Khanna integrates plastic surgery techniques into the lumpectomy procedure, reshaping the remaining breast tissue to restore a natural contour after tumor removal. This helps in maintaining symmetry and aesthetics while ensuring the complete removal of cancerous tissue.

2. Immediate Breast Reconstruction:
For patients undergoing mastectomy, Dr. Khanna offers immediate breast reconstruction in collaboration with plastic surgeons. This can involve placing implants or using autologous tissue (such as muscle or fat from other parts of the body) to reconstruct the breast during the same surgery. This minimizes the emotional impact of losing a breast and offers patients a quicker route to recovery and normalcy.

3. Reduction and Symmetry Procedures:
Oncoplastic techniques also allow for breast reduction in cases where the tumor’s removal affects breast size. Dr. Khanna can balance both breasts through reduction surgery, ensuring better symmetry. These techniques enhance the overall cosmetic result, reducing any noticeable disfigurement from the cancer surgery.

Comprehensive and Personalized Care:
Dr. Sunny Khanna’s approach to breast surgery and oncoplasty is highly personalized. He takes into account each patient’s unique cancer profile, body type, and personal preferences to develop a tailored surgical plan. His goal is to deliver excellent oncological outcomes while preserving or restoring the patient’s physical appearance, minimizing the psychological impact of cancer surgery.

With a combination of cutting-edge technology and compassionate care, Dr. Khanna guides his patients through every step of the surgical journey—from diagnosis to post-operative recovery—ensuring they receive not only the best possible treatment but also a renewed sense of confidence and wellbeing after surgery. He always look into patient’s satisfaction and health.
