Hello ,
Breast cancer is treated with mastectomy ( removing of the breast ) and lymph dysection ( removing of the axillar lymph nodes ) . You should see a surgeon and consult for preoperative cancer staging . After surgery is performed , oncology specialist will decide whether chemotherapy is needed .
