[Treatment of capsular contracture through areolar incision after augmentation mammaplasty].

[OBJECTIVE] To explore the treatment of breast sclerosis caused by capsular contracture after augmentation mammaplasty, and preventive measures after the treatment to avoid the recurrence.

[METHODS] With the incision through periareola, a part of the fibrous capsule and fibrillate tissue which is between the base of the capsula and the wall of the capsula were resected in the shape of wedge. At the same time, the wall of the capsular cavity was incised in radiant shape to relax it. After operation, the early and effective massage should be fully used.

[RESULTS] 17 case of 26 case were given follow-up over half a year, the results were satisfactory.

[CONCLUSIONS] After capsular contracture was relaxed and a part of the fibrous capsula between the base and the wall of the capsular cavity was resected in the shape of wedge, the prosthesis can be moved smoothly in the suitable cavity without any obstruction. In addition to the early and effective massage after operation, the methods might reach the ideal results.
