چکیده

PURPOSE: Several preoperative and intraoperative risk factors have been implicated in infectious complications of immediate breast reconstruction, however the link between common postoperative sequelae and surgical site infection (SSI) remains largely anecdotal. Published rates of seroma and SSI often trend in parallel, and authors have hypothesized that seroma formation may independently promote infectious complications. The current study aims to assess and quantify the postulated association between seroma and the risk of SSI in immediate breast reconstruction.

Immediate Nipple-Areolar Complex Reconstruction for Patients Undergoing Implant-Based Reconstruction or Therapeutic Mammoplasty

BACKGROUND We report a technique of immediate nipple-areolar complex (NAC) reconstruction for patients undergoing skin-sparing mastectomy and implant-based breast reconstruction or therapeutic mammoplasty with central excision. METHODS Immediate nipple reconstruction is performed using a modified C-V flap planned along the edge of the incision. The areola is reconstructed using a full-thickne...

Abstract: Acellular Dermal Matrix (ADM) Assisted Implant-Based Immediate Breast Reconstruction with Latissimus Dorsi Flap

INTRODUCTION: Pre-pectoral breast reconstruction is an emerging technique with potential benefits that include reduced pain, early patient recovery and no hyperanimation. There are studies reporting on clinical outcomes with pre-pectoral technique [PP] and comparing it to the dual plane technique [DP] in breast reconstruction. The goal of this study is to provide an early assessment of outcomes...

Prepectoral Implant-Based Breast Reconstruction

BACKGROUND The development of acellular dermal matrices (ADMs) has facilitated single-stage implant breast reconstruction (IBR) following skin-sparing mastectomy. The conventional approach of postpectoral implant placement with lower pole ADM confers a good cosmetic result by improving lower pole projection and control, while minimizing issues of implant visibility, palpability, and rippling. T...

Favorable Outcome with Close Margins in Patients Undergoing Nipple/Skin Sparing Mastectomy with Immediate Breast Reconstruction: 5-year Follow-up

BACKGROUND Implant-based breast reconstruction after mastectomy has recently been reported to be the preferred type of surgery among breast-specific surgeons and plastic surgeons. AIMS To explore the significant clinicopathological factors associated with long-term outcome related to local recurrences of the nipple among patients who underwent immediate breast reconstruction with tissue expan...

Abstract: Pre-pectoral Breast Reconstruction Prompts Revisiting the Anatomic Boundaries of the Breast: A Radiographic and Cadaveric Study

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...
