Abstract P3. Pectoralis Major Splitting Approach in Immediate Breast Reconstruction: A Submuscular Tissue Expander Technique for High Risk Patients
نویسندگان
چکیده
PURPOSE: Multiple studies demonstrate that traditional submuscular tissue expander coverage offers the best protection against implant exposure but restricts lower pole expansion. Recognizing these limitations, the authors present a pectoralis major splitting approach for complete submuscular coverage in high-risk patients or those with ischemic mastectomy skin flaps. The pectoralis major muscle is split longitudinally along the direction of its fibers and submuscular pocket is developed elevating serratus muscle and anterior rectus fascia in continuity. The objective of this study was to evaluate expansion characteristics and complications using this technique.

disinsertion of the pectoralis major muscle. This technique can produce significant postoperative pain and lead to breast animation deformities. Prepectoral breast reconstruction is an alternative technique that involves expander/implant placement in the prepectoral space with complete acellular dermal matrix coverage, thus eliminating the need for pectoralis muscle disruption. In this study, w...

BACKGROUND Acellular dermal matrix (ADM) allografts and their putative benefits have been increasingly described in prosthesis based breast reconstruction. There have been a myriad of analyses outlining ADM complication profiles, but few large-scale, multi-institutional studies exploring these outcomes. In this study, complication rates of acellular dermis-assisted tissue expander breast recons...
متن کاملMedial and Lateral Pectoral Nerve Block with Liposomal Bupivacaine for the Management of Postsurgical Pain after Submuscular Breast Augmentation
SUMMARY This report describes an ultrasound-guided medial and lateral pectoralis nerve block using liposome bupivacaine, performed before the surgical incision, in a patient undergoing submuscular breast augmentation. The anatomic basis and technique are described. This procedure may be offered to patients undergoing submuscular insertion of a breast implant or tissue expander. Advancements in ...
متن کاملImmediate Breast Tissue Expander-Implant Reconstruction With Inferolateral AlloDerm Hammock and Postoperative Radiation: A Preliminary Report
OBJECTIVE To preserve the mastectomy skin envelope in select patients destined to receive radiation following mastectomy, we performed immediate tissue expander-implant reconstruction with a subpectoral tissue expander and an inferolateral AlloDerm hammock for complete implant coverage. We hypothesized that the AlloDerm hammock may allow greater intraoperative volume expansion and potentially a...
