Abnormal EKG- Will IRBBB disqualify me for mommy makeover surgery?

An incomplete RBBB is a very common electrical heart abnormality. It is present in approximately 5% of the population as in generally considered benign, especially if you have no symptoms as opposed to a ILBBB which has a higher likelihood of progressing to a complete which can be serious. I screen my patients with IRBBB by asking them questions about their health… dizziness spells, chest pain, shortness of breath, exercise tolerance, etc… If they are asymptomatic I do not send them for independent medical clearance but if you have any concerns you should ask your PCP. I often hear of patient’s complaints of international medical tourism surgeons canceling surgery for minor issues that do not warrant cancellation and vice versa, the patient has a medical issue that should have cancelled surgery and they did not… be careful.

Dear Fierce188049,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination.You will need to get a clearance from your cardiologist. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Your description of IRBBB and VSG should not preclude you from having the surgery. If you are medically stable in other areas, the procedure would be the same. Hope this helps
