Dear Colleagues and Friends

Join us for the upcoming International Breast Surgery Workshop and World Consensus Conference on BIA-ALCL, returning back to where it all started 14 years ago – beautiful Rome, Italy. Experience exceptional faculty of scientist and authorities involved in the field of breast surgery that earned us an impressive total H-index of 1,515 for our speakers, a record of 3,429 virtual participants and an incredible 38,690 impressions last year in Houston!

After overcoming the challenges of the pandemic, we are eager to get back to the traditional April time frame of the meeting, with the added bonus of fewer overlapping congresses and the stunning springtime of the Eternal city, Rome.

Our original hybrid format, which we first started long before the pandemic, offers flexibility to all attendees, with live debates during session for those who attend in person or comfortable free worldwide virtual participation for those who are unable to be with us in Rome. Thanks to its presence on YouTube, the conference can be followed or consulted anytime during years, and quickly has become a milestone to be followed by regulatory authorities. 

Don’t miss out on this exciting opportunity to advance your knowledge and connect with leaders in breast surgery! 

IBSW: Where science meets la Dolce Vita!
