We here present a few comments on the invited discussion of Dr. van Heijningen on the paper "Assessment of Risk Factors for Rupture in Breast Reconstruction Patients with Macrotextured Breast Implants". Dr. van Heijningen made some reservat…

[UNLABELLED] There is no consensus regarding implant size as an independent risk factor for complications in primary breast augmentation. Choosing appropriate implant volume is an integral part of the preoperative planning process. The curr…

[PURPOSE] Implant-based breast reconstruction is the most common reconstruction method used after mastectomy in breast cancer patients. Many studies have compared the smooth round implants and textured anatomical implants. This study aimed …

Breast implants are prevalent in the United States. Patients with breast implants may be susceptible to iatrogenic implant rupture during cardiothoracic surgery. To our knowledge, however, this complication has never been described followin…

[BACKGROUND] Aesthetic and reconstructive implant-based breast operations are among the most common plastic surgery procedures. This study assessed the baseline knowledge of common breast implant-associated complications, and their influenc…

[BACKGROUND] Although breast implant techniques have advanced considerably since the first recorded augmentation procedure in 1895, rupture remains a significant complication. Proper diagnosis is vital for patients' well-being but can somet…

Background Breast augmentation with silicone implants is commonplace, and such implants have a risk of rupture which increases over time. Most implant ruptures are asymptomatic, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a recommended imaging …

[INTRODUCTION] Revising unsatisfactory outcomes in breast augmentation represents one of the most challenging procedures in aesthetic breast surgery. Different techniques for revising unsatisfactory outcomes in breast augmentation have been…

[BACKGROUND] Women undergoing immediate breast reconstruction without radiation therapy have reconstruction methods available with uncertain long-term costs associated with complications requiring surgery and revisions. We evaluated cost-ef…

[BACKGROUND] Silicone implants were developed in 1962 for breast augmentation and became essential in reconstruction after mastectomy. Silicone "bleeding" has been described from both ruptured and intact implants and can induce disseminated…

[BACKGROUND] Although plastic surgeons commonly perform capsulectomies for a variety of peri-prosthetic capsular conditions, the safety of capsulectomy remains unknown, and the literature lacks evidence describing its morbidity and complica…

[PURPOSE] Approximately 30% of women who receive postmastectomy radiation therapy in the setting of breast reconstruction suffer from reconstruction complications. This study aims to assess clinical and dosimetric factors associated with th…

[INTRODUCTION] More than one million breast augmentation procedures using silicone breast implants (SBI) have been performed worldwide. Adverse events of SBI include local complications such as pain, swelling, redness, infections, capsular …

Breast augmentation is one of the most common aesthetic procedures performed in the United States. Several techniques of breast augmentation have been developed, including the implantation of breast prostheses and the injection of autologou…

[BACKGROUND] Transgender women and transfeminine spectrum nonbinary individuals may opt for breast augmentation. The aim of the study is to analyze the complications, surgical trends, and long-term follow-up of breast augmentations in this …

Silicone gel-filled implants exist in a wide range of shapes and textures, and yet there are relatively few long-term large-scale studies, particularly on recently developed "semi-smooth" implants. The present study fills this gap by presen…

[BACKGROUND] Breast augmentation is the most common aesthetic operation performed in the United States and worldwide; 1,862,506 breast augmentation procedures were performed in 2018, an increase of 27.6 percent compared to 2014 data. [METH…

Breast implants are used for a wide range of cosmetic and reconstructive purposes. In addition to breast augmentation, implants can be used for postmastectomy breast reconstruction, correction of congenital breast anomalies, breast or chest…

[BACKGROUND] Lipofilling techniques are widespread in clinical practice as a complement to breast reconstruction, despite posing some risk. Punctual implant rupture following a fat transfer is one of the possible complications, which has no…

[BACKGROUND] Advantages of one-stage implant-based reconstructions include expedited surgery and recovery. This study aimed to investigate clinical and patient-reported outcomes in one-stage implant-based breast reconstructions without acel…
