Advantages of minimally invasive surgery for breast masses and calcified foci

 Early detection and early treatment of breast tumors is the key to improve patient survival. How to excise and characterize small breast masses that cannot be detected clinically has become a new challenge in contemporary breast surgery. The traditional surgical approach is to remove the lesion with the help of imaging, which often results in missed or wrong incision, or extensive excision, which brings obvious scarring and breaks the aesthetic appearance of the breast. Minimally invasive breast surgery can not only provide more reliable pathological histological diagnosis, but also protect the aesthetic appearance of the breast and fast postoperative recovery.

 By summarizing, compared with traditional surgery, it has the following characteristics.
1.Precise positioning and accurate excision of lesions: the use of B-ultrasound or molybdenum target stereoscopic positioning can precisely locate the complete excision of lesions, and the process is monitored in real time, compared with the traditional way of blind cutting by hand, its high accuracy is self-evident.
   2.Small incision and good cosmetic effect: Traditional open surgery has more incisions, obvious post-operative scars and high incidence of breast shape change, which leads to delayed consultation for many young women. Compared to the traditional surgery with 3-5 cm incision, the incision of minimally invasive breast surgery is only 3-5 mm, no suture is needed and no scars are left. It avoids cutting through the skin, subcutaneous tissue and normal glands, resulting in less tissue damage and faster recovery. 
   3. High-tech design ensures safety: the unique hollow puncture needle design, the whole operation is punctured only once, avoiding the needle tract metastasis caused by repeated multiple punctures of tumor cell shedding.
   4.Low infection rate and more economical: conventional surgery is prone to fat liquefaction and surgical sutures are retained in the incision as foreign bodies, both of which are prone to incision infection and poor healing; minimally invasive surgery causes little damage to normal tissues and no foreign bodies remain in the body, which significantly reduces the risk of infection and saves anti-infection costs.
   5. Fast and convenient surgery: short surgery time, light pain, 10-30 minutes for a single swelling, and free movement after surgery.
Minimally invasive breast surgery has many incomparable advantages over traditional open surgery, which not only improves the detection rate of tumors and is beneficial to patients’ health, but also minimizes trauma and reduces scarring, bringing gospel to the majority of breast patients.
