Comparative Outcomes of Proton versus Photon Postmastectomy Radiation Therapy in Prepectoral Implant-Based Breast Reconstruction.
[BACKGROUND] The increasing popularity of prepectoral implant-based breast reconstruction (PP-IBBR) and proton-based radiation (PRT) lacks outcomes data. The authors compared complications in PP-IBBR with photon-based radiation (XRT) versus…

Spatiotemporal control of autonomous adipogenesis of pre-adipocyte spheroids by bioactive nanofibers and soft hydrogel microenvironments.
Despite significant clinical utility, current soft tissue reconstruction modalities employing enriched grafts or liposuction impose considerable limitations including volume reduction and donor-site morbidity. Here, we present a biomimetic …
