Breast cancer incidence is on the rise in India as in rest of the world. While the advances in overall cancer care are at par, the surgical interventions have not been changing at the same pace in India, as in the rest of the developed world. Partly, this is due to the relatively more advanced state of cancer at detection and partly due to lack of awareness resulting in apprehension and slow acceptance of de-escalation of surgical interventions by the treating surgeons, and the beneficiaries, the patients. The article looks at the current scenario, available evidence on the practices and pitfalls with possible solutions for advancing surgical care of breast cancer in India.
