BACKGROUND The incidence of serious complications after augmentation mammaplasty with injection of polyacrylamide hydrogel (PAAG) was high. OBJECTIVE To design a new method for healing of the cavities and cysts after augmentation mammaplasty. METHODS 102 patients in whom PAAG exceeded the breast and spread to the thoracic-abdominal walls were enrolled and divided into two groups. RESULTS ...
