As the only private healthcare provider in the South of Spain, Hospital Quiron Malaga does now offer reconstruction of the amputated breast  not only with implants, but with autologous, which means the patients own tissue.

Such tissue can, for example,be harvested from the abdomen or the buttocks which does not only mean that the patient will have her breast reconstructed with her own tissue rather than with silicone, but within the same operation the patient  enjoys the benefit of an abdominoplasty or a buttock lift.

In Hospital Quiron Malaga, breast reconstruction is offered both immediate as well as delayed in close cooperation between the department of gynecology (Director :Dr.med.Andres Carlos Lopez) and the department of Plastic, Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery (Director: Dr.med.Alexander Aslani)

The both departments have joined together with the departments of radiology and oncology of Quiron Hospital to form a holistic breast cancer unit.
Emphasis will be to offer patients access to complete treatment concepts, guiding them through the complete process of breast cancer treatment, from diagnosis to partial or complete resection of the breasts, as well as either immediate of delayed reconstruction.
The service by the breast cancer clinic is unique to the private healthcare sector in southern Spain.

The team approach applied by the two departments works synergistic. The oncologic surgeon from the department of gynecology performs the resection and the Plastic surgeon reconstructs the breast, ideally with the patients own tissue.

“Our cooperation is in the interest of safety of patients and quality of life. We always operate together in a team so both surgeons are involved in all stages of the treatment,”says director Andres Carlos Lopez.

Dr.Alexander Aslani, leading  Plastic surgeon and head of the department of Plastic, Aesthetic and reconstructive surgery, wishes to give patients the full choice of reconstructive operations.

“ Our aim is to tailor surgical solutions to the individual need of each patient. We offer the whole range of Plastic surgical reconstruction, with emphasis on the patients own tissue, mostly using techniques of microsurgical techniques of free tissue transfer,” says Dr.Aslani.
The cooperation of oncologic and Plastic surgeon in a team approach in breast cancer treatment is the gold standard for breast cancer units.
Hospital Quiron aims to not only constitute the first and only full service breast cancer unit in the private healthcare sector in Spain, but also build an outstanding reference service in breast cancer surgery.
