Lumpectomy

A lumpectomy is the surgical removal of a cancerous lump in the breast, along with a small margin of the surrounding normal breast tissue. The doctors often perform this procedure on women with small or localized breast cancers. A lumpectomy can also be an attractive surgical treatment option for breast cancer because it allows women to maintain most of their breast after surgery. Several studies have shown that women with small breast tumors have an equal chance of surviving breast cancer regardless of whether they have a lumpectomy, followed by a full course of radiation therapy, or mastectomy (complete breast removal, which generally does not require post-operative radiation treatment).
