Also called: Single mastectomy; Double Mastectomy; Bilateral Mastectomy
A mastectomy is a surgical operation that may remove some or all of one or both breasts (double mastectomy or bilateral mastectomy). Unlike when a surgeon removes just the tumor (lumpectomy), a mastectomy removes all of the breast tissues, and in many cases, the nipple and areola.
UAMS Health providers care for a broad range of conditions, some of which may not be listed below.
Note that Mastectomy may not be performed at every location listed below. The list may include locations where the treatment plan is developed during and after a patient visit.
