A pillow should be used by the nurse to elevate the arm.

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.

Veronika [31]

Answer:

suffix that identifies the procedure, which is usually an excision.

Explanation:

Endocrinology can be defined as a filed in internal medicine that deals with the study of the endocrine system.

The main purpose of this specialized field is to have professionals (endocrinologists) carry out diagnosis and the management of endocrine conditions such as glucose level monitoring.

Medical terms for endocrine system procedures consist of the name of the gland such as thyroid, testes, pituitary, hypothalamus, adrenals, ovaries, etc and the suffix that identifies the procedure, which is usually an excision.

For example, the medical term "Thyroidectomy" is derived by combining the root word "thyroid" and the suffix "ectomy" (with the excision of thyroid).
