The Association of Surgeons of Uganda is the official body that unites all surgeons in Uganda and represents the national agenda for advancement of surgery.
THE ROOM IS FULL. THE LESSON IS POWERFUL. ๐ฅ
This afternoon at the #BreastCancerSymposium, Dr. Kakungulu Edward @Princekaed delivered a masterclass on the Surgical Management of Breast Cancer, focusing on mastectomies, breast-conserving techniques, and oncoplastic surgery.
The big takeaway? Modern breast surgery is no longer just about removalโitโs about Precision, Personalization, and De-escalation.
โจ 5 Key Take-Home Messages:
1๏ธโฃ Equal Outcomes: Breast Conserving Surgery + Radiotherapy yields the exact same survival outcome as a full mastectomy.
2๏ธโฃ Axilla Staging: Shifting toward Sentinel Node Biopsies to minimize invasive clearings.
3๏ธโฃ Shrink to Save: Neoadjuvant therapy can shrink large tumors enough to completely SAVE the breast.
4๏ธโฃ The New Era: Treatment is driven by precision and de-escalation.
5๏ธโฃ Tailored Care: Every woman receives individualized, evidence-based care based on age, genetics (like BRCA1/2), and tumor biology.
The Bottom Line: Oncoplastic surgery is changing the gameโremoving the cancer while restoring shape, confidence, and dignity.
