BREAST CANCER SURGERY OPTIONS:

There are different types of breast cancer surgery that depend upon the amount of healthy tissues removed with the tumor. Some lymph nodes under the arm are usually removed to detect the presence of cancer cells. It helps the doctor plan further treatment after the surgery. Types of breast cancer surgery include:

• Lumpectomy (wide local excision): It is also referred to as breast-conserving therapy and is done to maintain a normal breast appearance when the surgery is over. Here, the surgeon removes the cancerous area with a surrounding margin of normal tissue. To treat the remaining breast tissues after surgery, radiation therapy is used. This sort of surgery is generally followed by radiation-assisted treatments.
• Partial or segmental mastectomy or quadrantectomy: In this type of surgery, more breast tissues are removed than a lumpectomy. Here, surgeons remove the cancerous area and a surrounding margin of normal tissues. The patients are given radiation therapy after the surgery.
• Total mastectomy: In this type of surgery, the entire breast is removed without removing any lymph nodes. It is done to prevent new cancer from developing. It is also possible when the cancer does not go to the lymph nodes. This sort of surgery is performed to treat in-situ, microinavasive, or stage IA breast cancers.
• Modified radical mastectomy: This surgery ensures removal of all breast tissues along with the nipple. Samples of lymph nodes are also taken to plan treatments.
• Radical mastectomy: In this type of surgery, all of the breast tissues are removed along with the nipple, lymph nodes in the armpit, and chest wall muscles. This procedure is rarely performed in the modern world.
