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: 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: 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
