answer

Your doctor or breast care nurse will discuss the options with you. They take into account:

  • the size of your cancer
  • where the cancer is in your breast
  • whether there is more than one area of cancer
  • the size of your breasts
  • your general health

Depending on your situation, your surgeon might recommend that you have a particular operation. Or you might have a choice of operations to consider.
