Collagen wound dressing for healing after breast tumor surgery
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This trial tests a collagen wound dressing (like a special bandage) to help healing after breast tumor surgery. It may be a good option if you have a small breast tumor that has not spread and are scheduled for surgery.
