Abstract P8: Nationwide Cost Comparison of Autologous vs Implant-based Postmastectomy Reconstruction
نویسندگان
چکیده
CONCLUSION: We found high SSI rates following BCPS in massive weight loss patient population. The independent protective effect of pre-operative antimicrobial prophylaxis is inconsistent with the current guidelines that do not require antimicrobial prophylaxis for clean procedures such as BCPS. Further assessment of antimicrobial prophylaxis in BCPS using a randomized controlled clinical study is needed.

Cost-Effectiveness Analysis of Breast Reconstruction Options in the Setting of Postmastectomy Radiotherapy Using the BREAST-Q.
BACKGROUND A consensus is lacking on a uniform reconstructive algorithm for patients with locally advanced breast cancer who require postmastectomy radiotherapy. Both delayed autologous and immediate prosthetic techniques have inherent advantages and complications. The study hypothesis is that implants are more cost effective than autologous reconstruction in the setting of postmastectomy radio...
متن کاملComparison of Patient-reported Outcomes after Implant Versus Autologous Tissue Breast Reconstruction Using the BREAST-Q
BACKGROUND The demand for reconstructive breast procedures of various types has accelerated in recent years. Coupled with increased patient expectations, it has fostered the development of oncoplastic and reconstructive techniques in breast surgery. In the setting of postmastectomy reconstruction, patient satisfaction and quality of life are the most significant outcome variables when evaluatin...
متن کاملImmediate Postmastectomy Breast Reconstruction Showed Limited Advantage in Patient Survival after Stratifying by Family Income
BACKGROUND Postmastectomy breast reconstruction is widely used in breast cancer patients for its aesthetic effect. Although several studies have casted suspicion upon the oncological safety of immediate breast reconstruction after mastectomy, the potential impact of different reconstruction methods on patient survival remains unclear. PATIENTS AND METHODS We identified 35,126 female patients ...
متن کاملOutcomes of immediate tissue expander breast reconstruction followed by reconstruction of choice in the setting of postmastectomy radiation therapy: reply.
A common sequence for performing staged tissue expander breast reconstruction is to immediately insert a tissue expander, complete expansion before radiotherapy, and then perform the definitive reconstruction after radiotherapy is complete. This study evaluates the outcomes of this treatment regimen in 237 patients over a 10-year period at Northwestern Memorial Hospital. Overall, 62% of the pat...
متن کاملImmediate 1-stage vs. tissue expander postmastectomy implant breast reconstructions: a retrospective real-world comparison over 18 months.
BACKGROUND Postmastectomy implant breast reconstruction is typically accomplished in a two-stage process involving a tissue expander that is later exchanged for a permanent implant. Adoption of an immediate one stage reconstruction (1-stage) approach, where feasible, has been slowed by surgeon perception that this method is less likely to achieve acceptable results. METHODS To compare outcome...
