Malignant breast tumors are operated usually by General Surgeons
and for reconstruction of breast Plastic Surgeons are called
for. But I feel that benign breast tumors e.g. Fibroadenomas
should be operated by Plastic Surgeons, because in these cases
only the mass is removed without total ablation of the breast
and cosmesis in these cases are of utmost importance. Repair
by a Plastic Surgeon will definitely produce a cosmetically
better scar.
