Breast Cancer
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women worldwide, accounting for 1 in 4 female cancer diagnoses. In India, it surpassed cervical cancer as the leading female cancer in the last decade. When detected early (Stage I–II), 5-year survival rates exceed 90%. Iswarya Hospital's multidisciplinary Cancer Centre offers breast-conserving surgery (lumpectomy), mastectomy with reconstruction, sentinel lymph node biopsy, targeted HER2 therapy, hormonal therapy, and LINAC-based IGRT radiation. A dedicated tumour board reviews every case to determine the optimal treatment protocol.

- Skin dimpling, puckering, or redness
- Nipple discharge (especially blood-stained) from one side
