Abstract 118: Biosynthetic Mesh Compares Favorably to ADM in Tissue Expander-Based Breast Reconstruction
نویسندگان
چکیده
PURPOSE: Breast reconstruction is uniquely personal with many options available for patients and surgeons to consider. Among the methods of autologous breast reconstruction, abdominal based free flaps (ABFFs) including the transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous (TRAM), deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP), and superficial inferior epigastric artery (SIEA) flaps are the most common, with pedicled latissimus dorsi (LD) flaps as an alternative. While there is data to suggest that autologous tissue is advantageous, there are few studies directly comparing ABFFs and LD with an implant. The purpose of this study was to compare these methods of reconstruction in terms of post-operative outcomes and patient reported outcomes in a multi-centered cohort.

CONCLUSIONS: These data show biosynthetic P4HB mesh to be a safe alternative to ADM in expander-based breast reconstruction, with trends toward decreased rates of infection and need for device removal using P4HB mesh. There was also a trend toward decreased infection rates in P4HB patients that were not radiated. Although our results are limited to a small series of initial patients, P4HB porou...

متن کاملNew Deep Dermal ADM Incorporates Well in Case Series of Complex Breast Reconstruction Patients
Breast cancer patients with significant comorbidities present reconstructive challenges due to a predictably high complication rate. During expander-based breast reconstruction, human acellular dermal matrix (ADM) is often used to prevent pectoralis muscle retraction, facilitate early expansion, and improve cosmetic outcome. Device infection and chronic seroma have been correlated to the additi...

Background. While the benefits of using acellular dermal matrices (ADMs) in breast reconstruction are well described, their use has been associated with additional complications. The purpose of this study was to determine if ADM thickness affects complications in breast reconstruction. Methods. A retrospective chart review was performed including all tissue expander based breast reconstructions...

PurPoSe: Acellular dermal matrix (ADM) has gained popularity to enhance lower pole coverage in immediate implant or expander reconstruction. Advantages of ADM include improved rapid reconstruction, postoperative expander filling and lower capsular contracture. Potential trade-offs include higher seroma, infection and cost. Alternatives for implant coverage include local fascial flaps and inferi...
