생리식염수 보형물 Saline Implant

For asymptomatic patients with saline implants, no imaging is recommended. If there is suspected saline implant rupture, ultrasound is usually appropriate, though saline implant rupture is often clinically evident. For asymptomatic patients…

[BACKGROUND] The Ideal Implant structured breast implant uses different technology than unstructured saline or silicone gel implants, making it a third type of implant. U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Health Canada granted appro…

Capsular contracture is one of the most common complications following breast implant use in both aesthetic and reconstructive surgery procedures. Furthermore, capsular contracture remains one of the most common causes of reoperation in the…

Background With the use of nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) and skin-sparing mastectomy (SSM) techniques, utilizing a prepectoral underfilled adjustable saline implant allows for tissue contraction and thickening of the flap. This procedure …

[BACKGROUND] Patients with macromastia or breast ptosis can undergo a nipple-sparing mastectomy if their mastectomy flaps are delayed or if they are subjected to a breast reduction procedure and later undergo mastectomy. [METHODS] In this …

The IDEAL IMPLANT Structured Breast Implant is a dual lumen saline-filled implant with capsular contracture and deflation/rupture rates much lower than single-lumen silicone gel-filled implants. To better understand the implant's mechanical…

We report a woman who developed BIA-ALCL 9 years after saline implant placement. The lymphoma manifested as a mass lesion associated with axillary lymphadenopathy. She was successfully treated with brentuximab vedotin with minimal toxicity.…

We present a follow-up of a patient who underwent right-sided subtotal mastectomy and placement of right-sided saline implant in 1968 for a phyllodes tumor and then in 2012 was diagnosed with a rare B-cell type lymphoma of the right breast.…

Breast implant-associated lymphoma has recently gained wide recognition. Anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) is the most frequently diagnosed subtype in this setting but the spectrum is broadening. A 66-year-old woman developed swelling a…

[BACKGROUND] Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women worldwide, and is a leading cause of cancer death among women. Prophylactic or curative mastectomy is often followed by breast reconstruction for which there are several surgical…

[BACKGROUND] Preoperative saline deflation is a clinically useful intervention in revisional breast surgery. It allows suspensory ligament recovery, reveals true glandular volume, and simplifies mastopexy markings. Presently unknown are the…

[BACKGROUND] A large number of clinical studies have reported that the different materials used in breast implants were a possible cause of the different incidence rates of capsular contracture observed in patients after implantation. Howev…

[BACKGROUND] A double-lumen, saline-filled breast implant with a baffle structure (IDEAL IMPLANT Saline-Filled Breast Implant; Ideal Implant Incorporated, Irving, Texas) was developed to overcome the limitations of single-lumen saline impla…

[INTRODUCTION] No original articles have been published exploring female surgeons' preferences for breast cancer treatment and reconstruction if they were to be diagnosed with breast cancer. [MATERIALS AND METHODS] 107 female breast plasti…

[BACKGROUND] The latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap and implant breast reconstruction procedure has undergone many refinements over its lifetime. In fact, the authors have made many aesthetic and technical refinements to their own approach …

A study was undertaken to survey current practice patterns concerning primary breast augmentation. Members of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) were electronically surveyed concerning issues such as incision locatio…

[BACKGROUND] An increasing number of patients present today with volume-depleted breasts from large saline or silicone gel-filled implants most commonly placed under the pectoral muscle. Revisionary (secondary or tertiary) surgeries are per…

Implant rupture is a known complication after augmentation mammoplasty. Saline implant failure may present with few diagnosable problems due to the loss of volume. On the other hand, intracapsular silicone gel implant rupture or failure can…

The current approach to breast reconstruction remains largely subjective and is based on physical examination and visual-estimates of breast size. Thus, the overall success of breast reconstruction is limited by the inability of plastic sur…

[BACKGROUND] In February of 2001, Allergan (formerly Inamed) began an Investigational Device Exemption study of a shaped breast implant: the Style 410 highly cohesive silicone-filled breast implant. [METHODS] Forty-eight plastic surgeons a…
