DIEP Flap Reconstruction (Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator Flap Surgery) in Memorial Göztepe Hospital
About the clinic
DIEP flap breast reconstruction at Memorial Göztepe Hospital in Istanbul, Turkey, is a specialized surgery that uses the patient's own tissue to rebuild the breast. This autologous method avoids the use of implants and produces a natural, lasting result. The hospital is known for its high standards and was the first in Turkey to receive JCI accreditation.
Advanced Microsurgical Reconstruction
The DIEP flap procedure involves taking skin and fat from the lower abdomen to create a new breast. Unlike older methods, this technique spares the abdominal muscles. Surgeons at the hospital use a da Vinci XI robotic system and a hybrid operating room to perform this complex microsurgery. This specialized equipment helps the team handle delicate blood vessels with high precision. Advanced imaging tools like 3 Tesla MRI and 512-slice CT scans help the surgeons plan the surgery accurately.
Multidisciplinary Breast Cancer Care
Each patient at Memorial Göztepe Hospital benefits from a dedicated tumor board. This group of experts includes specialists in medical oncology, radiation oncology, surgery, and pathology. They also include experts in genetics, nutrition, and psycho-oncology to support the whole patient. The team designs a personalized treatment plan for every case. For many patients, a plastic surgeon performs the reconstruction during the same session as the mastectomy. This approach reduces the number of surgeries needed.
Clinical Excellence and Facilities
Memorial Göztepe Hospital belongs to the Memorial Health Group and follows international safety standards. It holds the LEED Platinum certificate, showing a commitment to a healthy environment for recovery. The hospital also features a clinical research unit focused on the latest developments in cancer therapy. This helps patients access modern treatment protocols in one location.
