I did not know all the details at the time but now know my Surgeon’s Retzius sparing technique was the Bocciardi approach. I really never realized the difference’s. I guess you likely want to choose one and find the Doctor. I don’t know if you try googling Retzius sparing surgeons in michigan if that might help. I mentioned I also would try for a surgeon that sends off the margins for inking while you are in surgery. I know it seems like a lot to find one that does it all. If you want i could try and send my Surgeon an email and ask if he is aware of any surgeon’s in Michigan

@wheel1 I guess in a perfect world I’d simply find a facility experienced in Retzuis Ralp and they would evaluate my MRI, tumor location and biopsy etc to determine if an anterior approach using the Hood-sparing technique or the posterior approach with the Boccardi was best option.

My gut tells me it’s not gonna work that way
