Various types of mastectomy include:

• Simple Mastectomy: Removal of all breast tissue.
• Radical Mastectomy: Removal of breast tissue, chest muscles, and underarm lymph nodes.
• Modified Radical Mastectomy: Removal of breast tissue and some underarm lymph nodes.
• Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy: Removal and examination of the closest lymph nodes to evaluate the spread of cancer. Axillary Lymph Node Dissection: Removal of more lymph nodes in the armpit area.
