@arpie I interpreted the tone, comment, and images in your post as your wanting a lighthearted 'show me yours and I'll show you mine' thread, a la Friday Funnies and A bit naughty - but funny!!!...some posts may offend'. You have clarified the reason for your suggesting the thread.
Your lumpectomy surgery is the standard-of-care by the highly trained oncoplastic breast surgeons of BreastSurgANZ.. Tumour excision and access to lymph nodes is via the area of the removed nipple. The reduction mammoplasty is the 'plastic surgery' aspect, which fills in and reshapes the breast. Access to lymph nodes is via the open nipple so this technique eliminates the underarm excisions that lesser-trained surgeons make in order to biopsy the lymph nodes. Unfortunately, women in rural and regional areas are less likely to have access to a BreastSurgANZ surgeon so may attend a general surgeon instead, without these state-of-art skills. Their cosmetic outcome may not be as good.
