Cathy Golden discusses her choice of the new breast cancer treatment option DIEP reconstructive surgery (DIEP stands for Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator) . Cathy traveled to the The Center for Restorative Breast Surgery in New Orleans to have the procedure done. The Center for Restorative Breast Surgery was established to serve as a dedicated resource for women seeking the most advanced methods of breast reconstruction utilizing the bodys own tissue. Founded by Frank J. DellaCroce, M.D., FACS and Scott K. Sullivan, M.D., FACS, the Center for Restorative Breast Surgery specializes exclusively in state-of-the-art breast surgery techniques (DIEP, SIEA and GAP flap procedures) that allow for breast reconstruction without sacrifice of important functional muscles. The restored breast is typically very natural looking with softness and shape that closely approach that of your own breast. You can get more information at http://www.breastcenter.com/welcome
