Breast cancer surgery in Contourly / Dr. Mostafa Sedky

Contourly is a private, consultant-led breast surgery clinic in Cairo. The facility focuses on breast assessment, cancer surgery, and reconstructive care. Specialist surgeons manage the practice, so every treatment plan begins with a clinical evaluation. This assessment covers breast lumps, nipple discharge, and skin changes to guide surgical planning.

Academic Credentials and Accreditations

The medical team consists of four physicians led by consultant breast surgeon Dr. Mostafa Sedky. He holds a Master of Surgery from Ain Shams University and is a Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh. He also maintains registration with the UK General Medical Council.

Dr. Sedky completed a clinical fellowship at Baheya Breast Cancer Hospital. He currently serves as Assistant Lecturer of Surgery at New Giza University. The team also includes Professor Ahmed Hazem Helmy, a specialist in general and breast surgery.

Specialties and Surgical Procedures

The clinic provides surgical solutions for oncology, mammology, and aesthetic needs. Surgeons perform breast-conserving procedures and complex reconstructions. Each surgery follows a workflow designed to support recovery through specific closure techniques.

• Breast Cancer Surgery: Surgeons perform lumpectomies to preserve healthy tissue. Mastectomy is available when tumor size or disease extent requires it.
• Oncoplastic Reconstruction: This combines cancer removal with reshaping. The clinic offers oncoplastic nipple reconstruction for patients who have lost a nipple.
• Aesthetic Breast Surgery: Procedures include breast reduction for symptom relief and breast augmentation. Augmentation plans use anatomy-led proportions for implant selection.
• Urgent Breast Care: The team manages acute conditions like abscesses using ultrasound assessment and drainage.
• Male Breast Surgery: Specialists perform gynecomastia surgery to treat enlarged male breast tissue.

For cancer cases, the choice between conserving surgery and mastectomy depends on patient preference and anatomy. Nipple-sparing mastectomy is an option for selected patients to support better cosmetic results.

Equipment and Perioperative Technologies

Contourly uses specific diagnostic tools to ensure accurate surgical margins and diagnosis. These include breast ultrasound and mammography with tomosynthesis. Tomosynthesis provides 3D-like images of the breast, which improves detection of small tumors. Breast MRI and detailed biopsy reviews are also available.

The clinic uses Tissue Glue for stitchless wound closure. This technology aims to reduce surgical site infections by over 50%. It also allows many patients to shower on the same day as their surgery. These techniques support smooth recovery and minimize visible scarring.

Services for International Patients

International patients access care through an appointment-based model and a specialist consultation pathway. This pathway manages complex breast surgery and reconstructive needs for travelers. The clinic emphasizes informed consent by providing detailed guidance on surgical trade-offs and risks.

Patients should provide previous imaging, pathology reports, and medication lists before their visit. This documentation allows the surgical team to compare findings and plan follow-up care effectively.
