Treatment for stage 1 breast cancer
Doctors may offer a variety of treatment options for breast cancer in stage 1, although the primary treatment is surgery.
Surgery
For those with stage 1 breast cancer, lumpectomy or mastectomy are both appropriate surgical options. A doctor will determine which operation is most suitable based on where the primary tumor is located, how big it is, the size of the breast, genetics, family history, and the choice of the individual.
