A Mechanical Model for the Failure of Reconstructive Breast Implant Surgery Due to Capsular Contracture.
Capsular contracture is a pathological response to implant-based reconstructive breast surgery, where the "capsule" (tissue surrounding an implant) painfully thickens, contracts and deforms. It is known to affect breast-cancer survivors at …

Implant Texture and Capsular Contracture: A Review of Cellular and Molecular Pathways.
[BACKGROUND] Capsular contracture (CC) is a leading cause of morbidity in implant-based breast surgery. Implant surface texture has been implicated in CC development, yet its etiopathogenesis remains unclear. We conducted a systematic revie…

Models for Implant-Induced Capsular Contracture Post Breast Cancer Surgery.
Capsular contracture is a painful deformation of scar-tissue that may form around an implant in post-breast cancer reconstruction or cosmetic surgery. Inflammation due to surgical trauma or contamination in the tissue around the implant cou…
