Breast Cancer Treatment in China

Breast cancer care in China may include early screening, imaging, pathology review, surgery, reconstruction, systemic therapy, and long-term follow-up. International patients benefit from coordinated care planning before travel.

Core care pathways

  • Breast cancer screening and diagnosis
  • Breast-conserving surgery
  • Sentinel lymph node biopsy
  • Modified radical mastectomy
  • Breast reconstruction after surgery
  • Chemotherapy, endocrine therapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy when appropriate

Questions patients often ask

  • Do I need pathology slides reviewed before consultation?
  • Can breast reconstruction be planned at the same time as cancer surgery?
  • How should I coordinate imaging, surgery, and systemic therapy?
  • What records should be translated before requesting an appointment?

Coordination considerations

Breast cancer care often requires a multidisciplinary team. Patients should prepare pathology reports, imaging, surgical records, medication history, and prior treatment summaries before requesting an appointment.
