This Surgery Spotlight, filmed in Ghent, Belgium, features Phillip Blondeel, MD as he performs a secondary breast reconstruction with the goal of achieving symmetry. The primary surgery was DIEP reconstruction after mastectomy. The video illustrates the Three-Step Principle, which involves an analysis of the breast, comprehension of what is troubled with the size and shape, and a systematic execution of the surgical design. In this resume of different techniques, the right breast requires a reduction and a narrowing of the shape, and the right breast receives a minimal mastoplexy. Liposuction and lipofilling are also utilized.

Disclosure

The Surgery Spotlight program was created to bridge a difficult gap between classroom theory and clinical application. Every month, PSEN seeks out experts in the clinical field to demonstrate their approach to a given surgical problem. By presenting the Surgical Spotlight program, the PSEN does not suggest that any one surgeon's operative method is the sole or only appropriate approach that should be considered. Every surgeon should use their own judgment in planning their operative approach to suit their own skill set and the needs of their patients. The views expressed in the Surgery Spotlight programs are the views of the operating surgeons and do not necessarily reflect the views of PSEN.
