Some common treatments for breast cancer include chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation or hormone therapy, and surgery. The individual treatment plan depends on the type and stage of the cancer.

Most women receive surgery as part of their treatment, but this does not always mean a mastectomy. Breast surgeons also use lumpectomies and other breast-conserving surgeries, which do not remove the entire breast.

Other surgeries may also be appropriate, such as surgery to remove nearby lymph nodes or reconstructive surgery after the cancer is removed. The individual treatment plan may be different for each patient.
