Mastectomy (breast removal)

Removal of the whole breast to treat or prevent breast cancer, with the option of rebuilding it.

Pending doctor check

What it is

The breast tissue is removed, sometimes keeping the skin or nipple. Lymph nodes from the armpit may also be removed. Breast reconstruction can be done in the same operation or later.

Who needs it

Women with a large or widespread breast cancer, or a high inherited risk of breast cancer.

Typical hospital stay
Usually 2 to 4 days, longer with reconstruction. Your hospital confirms it for your case.
Recovery time
Most women return to normal activity in 3 to 6 weeks.

What affects the cost

Every patient gets their own estimate, in writing, from the hospital. These are the things that move it.

  1. 01

    The hospital and the city

    Room types, equipment and running costs differ from one hospital to the next.

  2. 02

    The doctor

    A surgeon's fee follows their experience and how complex the operation is.

  3. 03

    The technique and the materials

    Keyhole or robotic surgery, and the make of any implant, can change the price.

  4. 04

    Your health

    Other conditions, earlier treatment and the tests you need before treatment all count.

  5. 05

    How long you stay

    Days in hospital, any time in intensive care and the weeks you spend recovering in India.

  6. 06

    What else you need

    Physiotherapy, medicines to take home and follow-up visits are added only if your doctor asks for them.

The estimate is not final until the doctor has examined you in India. If anything changes, we explain it before you agree to it.
