무세포진피기질 Acellular Dermal Matrix

Breast implant malposition is an increasingly recognized complication of breast augmentation and implant-based breast reconstruction. Etiologic factors include technical imprecision during surgery with overdissection or inadequate dissectio…

[BACKGROUND] Postmastectomy alloplastic breast reconstruction is a common procedure that continues to evolve. Increasingly, AlloDerm is being used in both direct-to-implant and two-stage breast reconstruction. The objective of this systemat…

[BACKGROUND] Increasingly, AlloDerm is being used in alloplastic breast reconstruction, and has been the subject of a recent systematic review. The authors' objective was to perform a cost analysis comparing direct-to-implant with AlloDerm …

[BACKGROUND] Despite their widespread use, there are no evidence-based guidelines on the management of closed-suction drains or antibiotics in postmastectomy breast reconstruction. The purpose of this study was to assess consensus and varia…

[BACKGROUND] Acellular dermal matrix has been increasingly accepted in prosthetic breast reconstruction. Observed benefits include improved control and support of implant position, better implant coverage, and the suggestion of a decreased …

[BACKGROUND] The use of human acellular dermal matrix (HADM) materials in prosthetic-based breast reconstruction has gained popularity in recent years. Questions remain, however, regarding the nature and incidence of postoperative complicat…

[BACKGROUND] The advent of skin- and nipple-sparing mastectomy in conjunction with the use of human acellular dermal matrix to provide lower pole coverage has made direct-to-implant immediate breast reconstruction following mastectomy feasi…

[BACKGROUND] Acellular cadaveric dermis in implant-based breast reconstruction provides an alternative to total submuscular placement. To date, there has been no detailed in vivo human analysis of the histopathologic sequelae of acellular c…

[BACKGROUND] The phenomena of "bottoming out" (pseudoptosis) and "star-gazing" (the upward rotation of the nipple-areola complex) is a common postoperative problem when using the inferior pedicle breast reduction technique. Multiple techniq…

[BACKGROUND] Secondary breast deformities following breast augmentation constitute some of the most challenging and difficult problems to correct. Although the application and efficacy of human acellular dermal matrix in breast reconstructi…

Alloderm as a biomechanical scaffold in situations such as skin grafting has been previously demonstrated. In this paper we describe its utility in a broad range of post-traumatic and congenital hand defects. During the recent three years, …

[INTRODUCTION] Synmastia is a condition in which the breasts are conjoint and the natural intermammary sulcus is obliterated. It is the rarest type of breast implant malpositioning during breast augmentation; however, it is the most difficu…

[BACKGROUND] Implant-based breast reconstruction is a popular option after mastectomy, but capsular contracture may detract from long-term outcomes. The authors have observed that breast implants covered with acellular dermal matrix (AlloDe…

[OBJECTIVE] To preserve the mastectomy skin envelope in select patients destined to receive radiation following mastectomy, we performed immediate tissue expander-implant reconstruction with a subpectoral tissue expander and an inferolatera…

Since the introduction of the silicone gel prosthesis in 1962, breast augmentation has become one of the most frequently performed operations in plastic surgery. As we strive for perfect results, it is important to continue to gather and re…

[BACKGROUND] The advantages of dual-plane, partially submuscular breast implants are well documented. Standard conversion techniques to dual-plane positioning use marionette sutures and internal capsulorrhaphy sutures from the lower edge of…
