ive just reread your query ——-sometimes you opt for a lumpectomy (trying to avoid mastectomy / breast reconstruction issues) and they can strike issues with clear excision margins or tumour larger than originally expected despite pre surgery tests . They’d take you back to surgery at a later time .
I went into surgery for lumpectomy feeling that’ll pathology found cancer found in lymph nodes or excision margins meant I needed further surgery , I’d probably decide that I’d opt for mastectomy if further surgery then required .
