From Breast Cancer Survivors :What Women Want and Need

It is a deadly blow for women to have breast cancer, which is not only to threat their life, but also lead to the drop of “ women charm, self-identity”. It is crucial for women to have the beauty and charm of healthy breast. But if a woman get breast cancer, even have to do the mastectomy, she will doubt and destroy herself: Am i a woman? Could i still have chance to get married and have children?


There is a study shows that: the investigation of 500 breast cancer patients who have survived more than 5 years from outpatient service care more about the sexual life problem after the mastectomy.   

“ i have a cancer patient here, who accepted the breast surgery, in the next five years she had no any sex life with her husband that make her so distressed and worry their marriage life. And there is still the same breast cancer patient who just go for a college life, but for her is too young to take the blow of losing the breast, even for the cured tumor from the cancer, she have to pay a heavy price from surgery to her breast in her life.” said by Lu Chen.


The research result from Lu Chen was published to a famous foreign journal, and he told the reporter that people more focus on the cancer breast prevention, its finding and treatments in the pass decade. By now, the rate of breast cancer found in the early state have been improved greatly, there are 80% of breast cancer patients can have a long-term survival, it becomes one of the best clinical treatment effect to malignant tumor. But what about the life of the breast cancer survivors, how to live well for them after the surgery has been a big problem. “ Nowadays, for the early detection of breast tumor in the medical community, the doctor will try their best to do the breast-preserving treatment, the cancer is malignant of patients whose breast can not be preserved the doctor could help to do a surgical repair at the same time. During the subsequent treatment, the breast cancer patients need more support from their families and more motivated encourage of life. At the same time, the key point of cancer patients to concern is that we need to lead a right idea to the breast cancer patients’ mind, that will make them to reduce their worry and anxiety. “   the research reporter said. So, how to preserve the breast of cancer patients, what is best treatment to breast-preserving without side effect and less pain?, two of these problems also trouble the breast cancer patients who more concern the breast health after the surgery.


With high technology development rapidly, the new breast cancer treatment is found and used in this field, the cryosurgical ablation therapy has become a new requirement for breast cancer patients. Using imaging guided techniques(Ultrasound, CT or MRI), cryo-probes are inserted into tumors to lower the temperature of the targeted area -160℃ or lower. Later the temperature is raised between 20 to 40 ℃. This process is repeated two or three times, resulting in complete ablation of the tumor. The aim of cryosurgery is to kill the most of cancer cells, and freeze them , let the cancer cells totally go into sleep and will not revive in a long time, this is the way to preserve the breast for breast cancer patients. 

For women, what is the most important thing is what they really want and need, having a beautiful and healthy breast is what they want and need, so the doctors and experts are still on a new breast cancer treatment research to find the way can totally kill the breast cancer cells and preserve the breast at the same time.




One of breast cancer patients who have accepted the cryosurgery treatment described her life , she said,  “though i live with cancer everyday, i am brave and positive enough to face them because my breast is still here , i feel like i am born in everyday, all is a new beginning in my life, i will keep a good attitude to make a good quality of life and then enjoy it.” i think this is the sound deep into every breast cancer patients’ heart.


Breast cancer patients have several therapies available to them. By combining several therapies,   patients often achieve a far better outcome than if they had underwent only one therapy. Along with conventional surgery, we also combine our experience in cryosurgery, and brachytherapy. These two methods have proven to be safe, effective, less painful, and minimally invasive.
The addition of oral medication completes the treatment plan.
