STEM CELLS HELP BREASTS!
It has been discovered that woman who have had lumpectomies and are injected with stem cells are happy with the results of the cosmetic surgery.
First as you know a lumpectomy is a surgery where the cancerous tumor and surrounding tissue are removed from the breast. This leaves the breast misshapen. In the past surgeons have used the patients own fat tissue to try to fill in what was removed, but some of these fat cells would die and leave a crater anyway.
What doctors are doing now is injecting the breast with the woman's own stem cells. It is thought that the stem cells are creating blood flow into the processed fat that is put in the tumors place, and keeping it alive and healthy. See article.
