On behalf of the Organizing Committee, it is our great pleasure to invite you to the Barcelona Breast Meeting 2018, which will take place from the 7th to the 9th March 2018, in Hospital de Sant Pau, Barcelona. This meeting is one of the oldest meeting in Europe and Barcelona is holding the BBM for 18 years.

As every year the meeting is divided in 3 parts, updates in oncological breast surgery, breast reconstructive surgery and aesthetic breast surgery.

There will be much discussion on hot topics and trends in areas of breast surgery, new surgical strategies after neo-adjuvant therapy, new trends in breast surgery education, latest techniques in oncoplastic surgery, pre-pectoral breast reconstruction and alternative perforator flaps. We are planning to do live surgery to highlight trends and

innovations in these fields and there will be a video-surgery session showing tips and tricks of some of the leading world experts. We hope you will find this year´s program particularly motivating and inspiring.

The opportunity to discuss and dialogue among participants make the BBM 2018 unique. The BBM 2018 provides an unequalled opportunity to see old friends and make new acquaintances. We assure you will have an enjoyable time in Barcelona, meeting friends and exploring our city.

It is a great pleasure for us to invite you to come and take part in this exiting and dynamic event in Barcelona

Sincerely yours,

Professor Jaume Masià & Professor Jian Farhadi
