Upon hearing the news that she has a lump in her breast, a woman's mind begins to race. Almost immediately, she considers the possibility of surgical removal of the breast, a procedure called mastectomy. While mastectomies are sometimes necessary, not all breast cancer diagnoses result in a full or partial mastectomy. Through advances in detection and diagnosis, women now have the benefit of new technologies that can help pinpoint the presence of a lump. The multi-disciplinary team of medical professionals at Franklin Square works to customize treatment options for each individual's case.
Treatments can include radiation, chemotherapy, hormone therapy, as well as surgery.
