Brings Expertise in Advanced Surgical Breast Reconstruction Techniques

Baltimore—(January 8, 2018)— Gabriel Del Corral, MD, a fellowship-trained plastic and reconstructive surgeon who specializes in microsurgical advancements in reconstructive breast surgery, has joined MedStar Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery at Medstar Franklin Square Medical Center, effective Jan. 1. 

Dr. Del Corral is board certified by both the American Board of Surgery and the American Board of Plastic Surgery. He has extensive experience performing a wide variety of advanced breast reconstruction techniques following breast cancer or reconstruction after preventive mastectomy surgery, that lead to better results and fewer complications. These include various flap techniques that require transferring or transplanting tissue and blood vessels from one part of the body to another part of the body using a high-powered microscope in the operating room. Dr. Del Corral’s skills include using surgical implants; the two-stage tissue expander/implant procedure, in which saline is added to stretch the skin over the pectoral area and create a breast mound, and the one-stage direct to implant reconstruction.

“We are excited about what Dr. Del Corral’s expertise adds to our breast cancer program,” said Linda Rogers, Vice President of Oncology for the Baltimore region of MedStar Health. “There are so many options for patients, both men and women now in cancer care, and it’s so important to have the most cutting edge technology, services and surgical skills set available. Dr. Del Corral’s experience brings highly specialized cosmetic options to our breast cancer patients, but also to our region in plastic surgery and cosmetic medicine.”

Dr. Del Corral also specializes in the treatment of post-surgical lymphedema and breast cancer-related lymphedema.

He has been named a “Top Doctor” by Baltimore Magazine for plastic surgery, cosmetic surgery, breast reconstruction and body contouring.

He sees patients at the Harry and Jeannette Weinberg Cancer Center on the campus of MedStar Franklin Square, 9103 Franklin Square Drive, Suite 1500, Baltimore, MD 21237.
