5Breast Conserving Surgery is conducted to excise breast masses [blank_start]leaving a clear margin of healthy tissue[blank_end]
- Aleaving a clear margin of healthy tissue

6All operations conducted on the breast also include removal of ... for pathology.
- AAll axillary lymph nodes
- BSome, but not all, of the axillary lymph nodes
- CAll internal mammary lymph nodes
- DSome, but not all, of the internal mammary lymph nodes
7Removing all lymph nodes during surgery typically leads to the patient developing which condition years down the line?
[blank_start]Lymphoedema[blank_end]- ALymphoedema
8Breast Conserving Surgery requires that a clear margin of what is considered as healthy tissue to be removed along with the cancer. At least how much of this tissue should be removed to create a clear margin around the excised tumour area?

20Which type of breast reconstruction surgery is most popular following a mastectomy?
- AImplant Based
- BAutologous (Free flap, TRAM, etc)
21Once implants are inserted following a mastectomy, they tend to be fixed in place and thus do not require revisional surgeries as the woman ages.

- AVerdadero
- BFalso
26Are the internal mammary lymph nodes commonly operated upon during breast surgeries?
- AYes
