Breast conservation therapy without capsular contracture in young augmented women using interstitial brachytherapy
PURPOSE To describe a breast-conserving technique using interstitial brachytherapy after lumpectomy and axillary nodal sampling in selected women who are diagnosed with breast cancer in the presence of augmentation mammoplasty. MATERIAL AND METHODS Over the past 20 years, we have developed and improved a technique of "pinch view" image-guided catheter insertion that avoids implant puncture. S...

The placement of the implant in the submuscular plane allows for constant massage, decreased potential contamination of the implant through the breast ducts, and less chance of hematoma formation. This is because of the decreased vascularity of the submuscular plane as compared with the subglandular plane.' Although we cannot report...
