A client is considering breast augmentation. Which of the following would the nurse recommend to the client to ensure that there are no malignancies?
A) Mammogram
B) Mastopexy
C) Ultrasound
D) Breast biopsy
A
Feedback:
When caring for a client considering breast augmentation, the nurse should provide her with a general guideline to have a mammogram to verify that there are no malignancies. Mastopexy involves a breast life for drooping breasts. Ultrasound or breast biopsy would not be necessary unless there was evidence of a problem.
