Rajagiri Hospital Kochi’s Post

Kerala Doctors Achieve Global Recognition for Affordable Breast Cancer Treatment Doctors at Rajagiri Hospital, Kerala, have developed Clip and Blue Placement, an innovative breast cancer surgery technique recognized by the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO). This cost-effective method, reducing treatment costs from ₹30,000 to ₹2,000, uses surgical clips and methylene blue dye to precisely identify and remove residual tumors post-chemotherapy. The minimally invasive technique ensures breast-conserving surgery, preserving the breast's natural shape while minimizing patient discomfort. Pioneered by a multidisciplinary team led by Dr. Subi T.S., Dr. Anand Ebin, and Dr. Teena Sleeba with Dr. Latha Abraham, Dr. Sanju Cyriac, Dr. Arun Philip and Dr. Ashwin Joy, this breakthrough earned the Best Research of the Year award at the National Oncology Conference in Bangalore. It reflects Rajagiri Hospital's commitment to accessible, high-quality cancer care, offering hope to patients worldwide by addressing the financial barriers to advanced treatment.         #BreastCancerCare #MedicalInnovation #AffordableHealthcare #KeralaPride #RajagiriHospital #CancerTreatment #BreastConservation #GlobalRecognition #OncologyBreakthrough #PatientFirst
