What is mastectomy?

In order to treat or prevent breast cancer, a mastectomy is a surgical procedure where entire breast tissue is removed from the breast.

A mastectomy might be a possible course of treatment for those with early-stage breast cancer. Another alternative is breast-conserving surgery, or lumpectomy, in which only the breast tumor is removed.

It can be challenging to choose between a lumpectomy and a mastectomy. For preventing a breast cancer recurrence, both procedures are equally beneficial. However, not everyone with breast cancer has the choice of having a lumpectomy; some would rather have a mastectomy.

Modern mastectomy methods allow for the preservation of breast skin and the restoration of a more natural-looking breast appearance. It's also referred to as a skin-sparing mastectomy.
