We have used 104 low-profile polyurethane-covered gel-filled mammary prostheses in 54 patients. Only one patient has developed capsular contracture. Foreign-body reaction to polyurethane was clinically significant in only one patient. Other…

We review the care and treatment of 93 patients who underwent submuscular breast reconstruction in our service between 1975 and 1980. The indications and clinical situations in which submuscular reconstruction has been useful include: follo…

A modification of an established technique to augment the breast is described. Thirty patients underwent subpectoral augmentation though a periareolar incision with a follow-up period of 10 to 16 months. The purpose was to combine the benef…

An analysis of the benefits of submuscular versus subcutaneous implantation was made on mastectomy patients. Ninety-one breast were reconstructed following mastectomy. In 30 breasts, the implants were placed subcutaneously; in 19, subpector…

The most frequent problems after subcutaneous mastectomy involve capsule formation, inadequate resection of breast tissue, and a poor aesthetic result as a consequence of nipple-areolar ptosis. These problems can be largely avoided by the s…

Subcutaneous mastectomy has been plagued by serious problems, especially capsule formation and poor cosmetic results. Since Jarrett's presentation of submuscular implantation, we have had extensive experience with that technique and have fo…

Subpectoral breast augmentation is well suited to Japanese women, due to the size of the breast and the characteristics of the chest and thorax. The surgical technique for subpectoral breast augmentation is presented.…

The mastectomy patient presenting to the plastic surgeon often relates a profound sense of deformity. The current state of the art in breast reconstruction allows the plastic surgeon to intelligently address this deformity with procedures c…

A technique is described for simultaneous insertion through a single inframammary incision of a custom-made prosthesis for pectus excavatum and a unilateral subpectoral breast prosthesis. This was performed under ketamine, diazepam, and loc…

Subcutaneous insertion of a gel-filled Silastic prosthesis to reconstruct a congenitally absent right breast was complicated by deterioration in skin circulation that necessitated removal of the implant approximately three hours postoperati…

Reconstructive surgery following mastectomy has had an increased acceptability with improved techniques and prostheses. Plastic reconstructive procedures following prophylactic mastectomy were performed in 104 patients and following mastect…

We present a series of 70 patients who have had bilateral subcutaneous mastectomies with immediate placement of implants under the intact pectoralis major and upper part of the serratus anterior. Twenty-two of these patients have had a simu…

A radical mastectomy was performed for a breast adenocarcinoma occurring 10 years after a subpectoral augmentation mammaplasty with silicone gel-filled prostheses. A foreign-body reaction to silicone was seen in two of the axillary lymph no…

National survival statistics for breast cancer victims are basically the same today as they have been for the last 50 years. Less than 60% survive five years after diagnosis, and they frequently must accept mutilating results of treatment. …

We have done subpectoral augmentations on 100 women to enlarge the small or hypomastic breast to a pleasing degree. These operations were performed in a major hospital operating room, under local anesthesia, on an ambulatory basis. No compl…
