Margins
Has anyone had Mastectomy but found out they had close or unclear margins? What did you do?

Hi MaryAnnie. It sounds like you and are are in the same position - positive margins after a mastectomy. I saw my surgeon again last week and again we spoke about the positive margins. He says it’s just a “technical” thing. The pathologists have to report it that way if there is no more breast tissue left adjacent to the mastectomy surgical margin. He reassured me again that it’s all ok and he’s not worried. Between the 2 of us we’ve seen 4 surgeons and they all say the same thing. I’m assuming that they’re all right and I’m going to stop worrying about it.
