Frequently Asked Questions

Q What is Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy?

It is the removal of the first few lymph nodes to check if cancer has spread. If they are clean, no further lymph nodes are removed, preventing lymphedema.

Q Can breast reconstruction be done at the same time as mastectomy?

Yes, joint teams of surgical oncologists and plastic surgeons frequently perform immediate reconstruction using implants or tissue flaps during the same surgery.
