Description: Current developments in breast reconstruction surgery, including data/results and safety recommendations are not being disseminated in a single educational activity. There is no course, currently available, that is purely reconstructive and covers topics from A-Z. This course intends to bring experts with a great deal of experience in all areas of breast reconstruction together for the first time. The program will address all of the factors relative to surgical indications and selection of appropriate technique for reconstruction of the breast. This course will include lectures on all commonly performed flaps used for breast reconstruction with extensive discussion of perforator flaps. We will feature a case of a live perforator flap breast reconstruction surgery.
