At the end of the 12 months in Cambridge and London the two fellows will join two qualified International Institutions in Milan (Fondazione IRCCS Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori) and in New York (Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center).
The two observerships are funded by our organization and can include two weeks in Sicily in a tertiary care Hospital in Catania and some more experience in cosmetic surgery with Dr Maurizio Nava and his team in Milan.In.
Some more opportunities are offered by the Fellowship this year. The new BRESO platform for certification of breast surgical oncologist is representing leading societies and organisations involved in breast surgery specialisation and accreditation. G.Re.T.A. as a partner and founder society is willing to including the International Fellowship as part of the BRESO certification process. The two Institutions actively involved are now considering applying to become a Tier 2 Center and let the two fellows accumulate experience for the BRESO certification.

International Fellowship Mr. G. Querci della Rovere Edition 2021
Being an “Oncoplastic Breast Surgeon” is not only a matter of refined surgical techniques. You can learn level III oncoplastic surgery, complex breast reconstructions, microvascular surgery or fat transplantation and still you are not a truly Oncoplastic Surgeon!
