Abstract: An Algorithmic Approach to Pre-Pectoral Direct to Implant Breast Reconstruction
نویسندگان
چکیده
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, use of improper implants, and unsuitable patient selection. Over the last 5 years, we have gained significant experience from the performance of DTI reconstructions at our institution and believe we have valuable knowledge and clinical pearls to offer to reconstructive surgeons.

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...

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 pa...

Significant advances have been made to the reconstructive tools available to plastic surgeons allowing for the re-exploration of subcutaneous breast reconstruction. The purpose of the current study is to examine the safety, efficacy, and aesthetic results of subcutaneous breast reconstruction by a single-surgeon. A retrospective chart review was performed on all patients undergoing subcutaneous...
