Signs You May Need Mastectomy
Patients considering mastectomy typically have a confirmed diagnosis of breast cancer through biopsy, often after noticing a lump, skin changes, nipple retraction, or abnormal mammogram findings. In preventive cases, patients may have no symptoms at all but a strong family history or genetic test result indicating very high future breast cancer risk.
