Staying Abreast: Innovations in Plastic Surgery

This workshop will include viewpoints from local plastic surgeons committed to reconstructive surgery of the breast and will review strategies for successful reconstruction with an emphasis on emerging trends and technologies.  Examples include nipple sparing mastectomies, concepts for reconstruction in the setting of radiation, microsurgical reconstruction, new implant choices, etc. In an interactive panel format, it will hope to bring multiple perspectives and include a question and answer session.
