Helping you understand Our healthcare
A Modified Radical Mastectomy is a surgery to remove the entire breast tissue along with nearby (axillary) lymph nodes to treat breast cancer. Unlike a radical mastectomy, the chest muscles are preserved.
MRM is recommended when:
- The tumor is large relative to breast size.
- There are multiple tumors in different parts of the breast.
- Cancer has spread to the lymph nodes.
- A lumpectomy isn’t possible due to recurrence or patient preference.
The procedure usually takes 2 to 3 hours, depending on the extent of lymph node removal and reconstruction plans (if any).
Possibly, yes. Depending on the stage and type of cancer, your doctor may recommend chemotherapy, radiation therapy, hormone therapy, or targeted therapy after surgery for better outcomes.
Most patients stay 2–5 days in the hospital. You’ll go home once your drain output reduces and you’re comfortable managing wound care.
