Fellowship in Breast Surgery deals principally with early diagnosis and management of breast diseases, specially Breast Cancer, presenting as primary or metastatic disease.  Breast diseases include study and treatment of benign as well as malignant disorders encountered in adolescent, reproductive, and post-menopausal age groups.

Initially incorporated as part of General Surgery, breast disease management gradually evolved from introduction of screening programme in 1988.  In 2012, the Section of Breast Surgery was established within the Department of Surgery as a separate unit, offering training at postgraduate level for quality patient care. The section is currently the only unit in Pakistan to have attained membership of European Breast Centers Network. The fellowship programme has been recognised by CPSP in 2019 for 2nd Fellowship.​
