  • Personalising Breast Cancer Treatments: 5 Questions with Dr Barbara Pistilli

    Advances in treatment and patient care mean that five-year net survival for breast cancer now reaches 88%1 in France. However, with around 60,000 new cases diagnosed each year in France alone, breast cancer remains a major public health challenge. One reason is the side effects associated with treatment. In response to this issue, Dr Barbara Pistilli, Head of the Breast Cancer Committee at Gustave Roussy, advocates an approach centred on personalised care, ensuring that each woman receives a treatment intensity tailored to her tumour and individual journey, without compromising her chances of recovery.

  • Breast Cancer: Gustave Roussy Ranked No. 1 in France for Breast Surgery and Breast Reconstruction

Beyond this ranking, these figures highlight that reconstruction is now an integral part of breast cancer treatment. It is considered at every stage of care: from tumor removal surgery, whether lumpectomy or mastectomy, through to the post-cancer period, helping to restore the body and support women in regaining their physical integrity and quality of life.
