Abstract: Evolution of the Surgical Technique for Direct to Implant Breast Reconstruction: Transitioning from Dual Plane to Pre-Pectoral Implant Placement
نویسندگان
چکیده
INTRODUCTION: Direct to implant (DTI) breast reconstruction offers the obvious advantages of shortening the reconstructive process and reducing costs. In our practice, DTI has evolved from dual-plane (DP) to prepectoral (PP) implant placement. Prepectoral reconstruction offers additional benefits of elimination of pectoralis muscle animation deformity and potential reduction in postoperative pain and length of stay (LOS). We sought to understand post-operative complications, aesthetic outcomes, postoperative pain and LOS in DTI reconstructions and identify differences in the sub-cohorts (DP,PP).

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...
متن کاملAbstract: An Algorithmic Approach to Pre-Pectoral Direct to Implant Breast Reconstruction
INTRODUCTION: Pre-pectoral direct to implant (DTI) breast reconstruction has historically been fraught with complications including flap necrosis, implant extrusion, and capsular contracture as well as extremely high rates of operative revisions. This may result from a number of factors, including the lack of an algorithmic approach, failure to predict postoperative migration of the implant, us...
متن کاملA Novel Technique of Intraoperative Lateral Pectoral Nerve Block During Subpectoral Breast Implant Placement
Breast surgery is one of the most frequently performed surgeries in hospitals and can be associated with significant postoperative pain. We report a novel technique of intraoperative lateral pectoral nerve block under direct vision for analgesia post subpectoral implant placement for breast reconstruction.

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...
