I am looking to perform a breast reduction very soon. I just found out I have a ball/lump of mass on my right breast. Can this cyst be removed during surgery ?
Answer: Is it possible for a Plastic Surgeon to remove a (breast cyst) during a breast reduction? Yes, generally speaking, benign lesions such as cysts or fibroadenomas can be removed at the time of elective breast surgery. It will be important that the lesion be definitively shown to be benign prior to proceeding; it will also be important that the lesion be palpable, so that your surgeon is able to locate it during surgery. Best wishes for an outcome that you will be very pleased with.

Answer: Breast cyst Breast cysts can be removed during surgery, but finding them is not as easy as it sounds. Cysts generally do NOT require surgery, but a simple aspiration procedure that a breast surgeon or radiologist can do without surgery at all. Be sure to discuss your goals and concerns with your board certified plastic surgeon and consider the pros and the cons. Be certain your surgeon is properly certified. I've attached a link where you can start your search.

Answer: Cyst Removal Yes, this can likely be removed during surgery. All of the excised breast tissue is sent to Surgical Pathology and evaluated for cancer. I recommend an in-office examination as well as a detailed discussion with a surgeon who you are comfortable with. Finally, make sure your surgeon is a Double-Board Certified Plastic Surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgery (ASPS) and the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS).Best,Dr. DesaiBeverly Hills Institute for Aesthetic Plastic SurgeryHarvard Educated, Beverly Hills & Miami Beach Trained, Double-Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Is it possible for a Plastic Surgeon to remove a (breast cyst) during a breast reduction? ThanksA breast cyst can be removed at the time of a breast reduction surgery. It is possible that you have gone through a process of diagnosis by Scans. biopsy of this lump. If not, it is critical that this lump/cyst needs to be investigated and the diagnosis confirmed before breast reduction surgery. Best wishes
