Can breast implants and have a benign Desmoid Tumor removed within the same surgery procedure?

Asked By:Calm608654 in Atlanta, Georgia

I am looking at doing a surgery to remove a benign desmoid tumor in the upper right abdominal area in the next few months. I was also considering getting transaxillary breast implants done sometime this year and was wondering if the implant surgeon would be comfortable removing the desmoid mass in my abdominal area at the same time. My thinking is that this would save on medical costs by doing one procedure versus two, plus only one recovery period instead of two. I am healthy and in my mid 30s.
