Understanding Mastectomy

Causes, Symptoms & Diagnosis

Common Causes

  • Diagnosed breast cancer requiring tissue removal
  • High genetic risk of breast cancer (e.g. BRCA1/BRCA2)
  • Recurrent or extensive benign breast disease in some cases
  • Failed response to breast-conserving treatment
  • Preventive decision following strong family history

Common Symptoms

  • A new lump or thickening in the breast or underarm
  • Change in breast size, shape or skin texture
  • Nipple discharge, inversion or skin dimpling
  • Persistent breast pain not linked to the menstrual cycle
  • Visible skin redness or swelling in inflammatory cases

How We Diagnose It

  • Clinical breast examination
  • Diagnostic mammography and/or breast ultrasound
  • Core needle biopsy to confirm diagnosis and tissue type
  • MRI or additional imaging for staging where indicated
  • Multidisciplinary team review to plan the surgical approach

Pricing

Cost of Mastectomy Treatment in Abuja

The cost of mastectomy treatment in Abuja is a common and important consideration for our patients. Laser-first treatment uses more advanced technology than traditional surgery, and while its cost structure can differ, its value is significant once you weigh the avoided pain, the shorter time away from work, and the overall improvement in your quality of life. The final cost depends entirely on your individual case — there is no one-size-fits-all price.

What affects your final cost

  • The severity, grade or extent of your condition
  • The specific details of your individual case
  • The surgeon’s fee
  • The type of anaesthesia used
  • Any additional diagnostic tests required

Most patients stay one to three days, depending on the extent of surgery and whether reconstruction is performed.
Will I need further treatment after surgery?
Depending on the diagnosis, additional treatment such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy or hormone therapy may be recommended by the oncology team.
