How long do patients have to stay in hospital after mastectomy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Hospital stay depends on each individual patient and their respective surgeries. In my practice, a patient who undergoes a routine, uneventful total mastectomy can be discharged home the day after surgery.
