Cancer Care & Second Opinion

Breast cancer care continues after the flight home

Much of breast cancer treatment continues after you return home, so plan the handover before departure.

Follow-up may include

  • final pathology
  • additional surgery
  • chemotherapy
  • endocrine therapy
  • HER2-directed treatment
  • radiotherapy
  • wound/drain management
  • rehabilitation
  • lymphoedema monitoring
  • reconstruction follow-up
  • surveillance imaging

Before departure, obtain

  • English discharge summary
  • operative and pathology records
  • imaging copies
  • medication plan
  • wound/drain instructions
  • warning signs
  • contact pathway
  • next-treatment timeline
