Researchers from our Division of Breast Surgery will be presenting at the 2024 @AsianAcadSurg Annual Meeting this Friday. Penn attendees are encouraged to cheer on faculty, trainees, and students as they deliver impactful information on new and ongoing research projects.
Fabulous talk by @pennsurgery resident Gabi Tortorello discussing the lag in uptake of Choosing Wisely guidelines to deescalate SLNB in women >70 yo with early breast cancer! @tchou_julia@DrLolaFayanju#SSO2024
One my favorite topics, de-escalation of axillary surgery in older patients with #breastcancer! More support for consideration of omission yet most are still having it! 😳🧐 By Dr Gabriella Tortorello and colleagues @pennsurgery@DrLolaFayanju et al!
The University of Pennsylvania Division of Breast Surgery is sending a team of accomplished researchers to the 2024 Society of Surgical Oncology. The meeting will be held in Atlanta, GA, from March 20-23, 2024. #SSO2024

Honored to receive this award and looking forward to delving deeper into the influences of surgical instrument ergonomics on gender disparities in surgery. Thank you @AMAFound@AmerMedicalAssn for the opportunity! @DrLolaFayanju
Congratulations go out to our Chief, Division of Breast Surgery @DrLolaFayanju on being named a Breast Cancer Research Foundation (@BCRFCure) Investigator!
It’s been a great week for honoring the #sheroes among us. Dr Dahlia Sataloff is a 🌟! So proud to have her @pennsurgery in our Division of Breast Surgery and grateful for her outstanding technical skill, clinical judgment, kindness, and wisdom. 👸🏼@penncancer
I cannot emphasize how important this development is. Black women are more likely to present at younger ages, with more aggressive disease, & at later stage. Now we have a chance to catch these deadly cancers before it's too late @ASBrS@AmericanCancer: https://t.co/3as2xwoC9C.
