Test Details:
A modified radical mastectomy is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of the entire breast tissue, including the nipple and areola, along with the axillary lymph nodes. This procedure is usually performed when a biopsy of the breast has confirmed the presence of cancerous cells.
During the surgery, an incision is made in the breast, and the breast tissue is removed. The surgeon also removes some of the lymph nodes from the armpit area to check for any spread of cancer cells. The remaining skin is then closed with sutures or surgical staples.
After the surgery, the patient may experience pain and discomfort, which can be managed with pain medications. The recovery period usually takes several weeks, during which time the patient may need to avoid strenuous activities and follow specific post-operative care instructions.
A modified radical mastectomy is an effective treatment option for breast cancer, particularly when the cancer has spread to the lymph nodes. It helps to remove the cancerous tissue and reduce the risk of further spread. However, it does result in the loss of the breast, and some patients may choose to undergo breast reconstruction surgery after the mastectomy.
