Hello ma'am and welcome.
The type of surgery depends entirely.on the area affected with calcification, and based on your description this seems to be quite a lot.
There are of course options for removal and reconstruction, if this is the issue concerning you. But I am sure your doctor had your best interest in mind.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
