Our vision
The fundamental changes happened in perceptions of breast cancer nature for the last
20 years. The conceptions of Breast cancer diagnostic and treatment essentially changed
with accent on improvement of the quality of patients’ life. Modern knowledge and
technologies make possible to save or reconstruct the breast, obtaining good esthetic
results without deterioration of oncology principles. The new strategy improves treatment
results and living standards.
Our conference is an attempt to show and discuss the high-profile issues in breast cancer
surgery area, modern tendencies and technologies, practical questions of assistance and
aftercare to breast cancer patients to get better results.
The main principals of this conference are openness, cooperation, maximum of usability
and high level of discussion based on evidence-based medicine.
