Seven years of preoperative BTA abdominal wall preparation and the Macquarie system for surgical management of complex ventral hernia.
[PURPOSE] To assess 7-year outcomes after complex ventral hernia (CVH) repair using pre-operative Botulinum toxin A (BTA) injection and the Macquarie System of management. [METHODS] Clinical examination and functional non-contrast abdomina…

The macquarie system for comprehensive management of complex ventral hernia.
[BACKGROUND] Despite recent advances in the operative management of complex ventral hernia (CVH), significant challenges remain. Closure of large defects can have serious pathophysiological consequences due to chronic contraction and retrac…

Chronic biofilm infection in breast implants is associated with an increased T-cell lymphocytic infiltrate: implications for breast implant-associated lymphoma.
[BACKGROUND] Biofilm infection of breast implants significantly potentiates capsular contracture. This study investigated whether chronic biofilm infection could promote T-cell hyperplasia. [METHODS] In the pig study, 12 textured and 12 sm…

In vitro and in vivo investigation of the influence of implant surface on the formation of bacterial biofilm in mammary implants.
[BACKGROUND] Capsular contracture remains the most common complication following breast augmentation surgery, and evidence suggests that bacterial biofilm on the implant surface is responsible. The authors investigated whether the interacti…

Prevention of biofilm-induced capsular contracture with antibiotic-impregnated mesh in a porcine model.
[BACKGROUND] A growing body of evidence implicates subclinical (biofilm) infection around breast implants as an important cause of capsular contracture (CC). [OBJECTIVES] The authors use an in vivo porcine model to investigate the potentia…
