15.01.2022 BreastSurgANZ welcomes Tuesday’s announcement by the National Cabinet on the staged return of elective surgery across the public and private health systems. B...reastSurgANZ supports the gradual opening of breast reconstruction surgery and access to Breastscreen services which ceased during the COVID-19 pandemic, subject to the capacity of local hospital provisions and services, and surgical decisions about a patient's best interests. We are pleased our patients will have access to breast reconstruction services, however this is still a staged approach, starting with 25% capacity. The current trend of reduced COVID-19 levels in Australia and in New Zealand is reassuring for all breast cancer patients, their surgeons and health professionals, as well their extended communities. We hope that breast cancer services can return to normal in the near future with a sustained flattening of COVID. A cautious approach to this challenge continues, however this is a very positive phase.

12.01.2022 Garden Luncheon 4th April, 1130am Come along and support the Foundation for breast Cancer Care in Wagga Wagga. If you can't make it, go to our website ffbcc.org....au and you can make a donation. One of our causes is surgery to preserve body shape Mastectomy or removal of the breast is a serious step made after much consultation between a suregon and their patient. It is a ‘life before limb’ decision. Techniques are emerging to make this operation history. The range of procedures to safely preserve the breast is increasing, as is the ability to immediately reconstruct the breast. This is an exciting area of surgery the Foundation for Breast Cancer Care wish to promote. We believe that all breast cancer patients should have these techniques available to them. Oncoplastic surgery is a technical advance of the last decade to increase the number of breast conservation procedures for patients who would otherwise have been forced to have mastectomy. In some places, the mastectomy rate is < 10% for breast cancer. Immediate breast reconstruction has been available for some time in Australia, however it is performed in only one quarter of cases eligible. Both of these techniques can be carried out by the treating surgeon in the local hospital. Using both of these techniques, patients may avoid having to live without a breast, or the need to travel to a major centre to have reconstructions performed. Our goal: Our Goal is to provide the training opportunities for all breast cancer surgeons to learn oncoplastic surgery and immediate breast reconstruction.
