Mammotome to remove fat necrosis caused by radiation

Kohinoor

I hope I can find someone who can help. I had a lumpectomy for ILC four months ago followed by 30/5 sessions of radiation therapy. Now I'm on Tam. A month ago I had my first ultrasound and it showed a lesion that was classified BIRADS 4c. The biopsy indicated it's fat necrosis resulting from radiation treatment.

My three doctors the surgeon, oncologist and radiologist want to have this fat necrosis removed in three months' time. However, they're not in agreement about the method of removal. The surgeon wants to have it surgically removed. The oncologist and the onco-radiologist prefer the Mammotome as it's less invasive and would leave no scar.

I'm confused and don't know which option I should go for and what dangers I risk running into if I choose not to remove this area of fat necrosis.

Can anyone help answer my questions?

Thanks.

Kohinoor, I am just wondering what happened?
