A method to select patients for vertical scar or inverted-T pattern breast reduction.
Vertical scar breast reduction (VSBR) is an increasingly popular technique but can carry a high complication and revision rate. We evaluate our complication rate when selecting patients for VSBR or inverted-T breast reductions (ITBR). We lo…

The Asplund-Davies vertical scar breast reduction technique preserves the sub-areolar skin thickness in the long term: a matched comparative study with the inverted T technique.
[BACKGROUND AND AIM] The inverted T technique, a popular method of breast reduction, relies on stretching the skin over glandular breast tissue to create the breast shape. The Asplund-Davies vertical scar method of breast reduction by contr…

The efficacy of bupivacaine with adrenaline in reducing pain and bleeding associated with breast reduction: a prospective trial.
In a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, the effect of preoperative local anaesthesia vasoconstrictor infiltration on peri- and postoperative bleeding and postoperative pain was evaluated in 24 consecutive patients undergoin…

Textured or smooth implants for submuscular breast augmentation: a controlled study.
Capsular contracture consistently has been the most frequently noted complication of submuscular and subglandular breast augmentation. The etiology of this complication is still unknown, although silicone bleed, hematoma, infection, foreign…

Transcutaneous extravasation of silicone following breast augmentation.
Transcutaneous leakage of silicone in the absence of sinus formation has not previously been described. We present a case in which silicone extravasation occurred following the rupture of a breast implant inserted 14 years previously.…

Capsular contracture after breast reconstruction with silicone-gel and saline-filled implants: a 6-year follow-up.
A major problem after breast reconstruction with augmentation mammaplasty is contracture of the fibrous capsule around the prosthesis. In a series of 72 breasts in 65 women, silicone-gel and saline-filled implants were randomly selected pri…

Preoperative antibiotics and capsular contracture in augmentation mammaplasty.
The main drawback with augmentation mammaplasty using implants is capsular contracture. The cause of this complication is still unknown. Silicone particles, hematoma, and bacterial contamination are some of the etiologic factors discussed. …

Results of subglandular breast augmentation using a new classification method--18-year follow-up.
The main problem after augmentation mammaplasty is the formation of capsular contractures. The frequency of this complication varies in different reports. In this study the results in 60 women 15-21 years after subglandular breast augmentat…

Capsular contracture in silicone gel and saline-filled breast implants after reconstruction.
Comparisons between results with randomly allotted silicone-gel and saline-filled prostheses in breast reconstruction after mastectomy led to the following conclusions. Neither prosthesis type is ideal. Leakage from saline-filled implants o…

Interobserver variation and cosmetic result of submuscular breast reconstruction.
Four experienced plastic surgeons judged the results of 6 different variables in 99 breast reconstructed women. In the range good to poor the observers assessed symmetry of size, position of the submammary fold, symmetry of shape, nipple-ar…

Late results following mastectomy for cancer and breast reconstruction.
A series of 100 women had been surgically treated for breast cancer and reconstructed by implantation of a submuscular prosthesis. The patients intensely desired the procedure and were supposed to have a realistic anticipation concerning th…
-
Psychological aspects of breast reconstruction following mastectomy.
In order to analyse the experiences of women after breast reconstruction and to find variables influencing these experiences, 45 women were studied with quantitative methods and 14 with deep interviews, one to four years after breast recons…

Breast reconstruction with submuscular prosthesis after modified radical or simple mastectomy. Surgical technique and early complications.
A series of 100 women who underwent breast reconstruction is reviewed. They had previously been treated for breast cancer with modified radical or simple mastectomy. The technique and early results of reconstruction are presented. The same …

Adjustment of the contralateral breast following breast reconstruction.
Surgery on the contralateral breast was performed in 64 of 100 patients for adjustment of size and shape or for diagnostic purposes. The patients found it more desirable to adjust size than shape asymmetry on the contralateral breast. There…

Nipple and areola reconstruction. A study in 79 mastectomized women.
Seventy-nine patients of 100 desired a nipple-areola reconstruction. In nipple-areola reconstruction, skin from the upper inner thigh gives the best results as areola replacement, except perhaps in women with very large contralateral areola…
