The development of a capsule around an implant is part of the physiological response to a foreign body. Capsular contracture is the most specific and frustrating complication of augmentation mammaplasty, and a lot of studies have been devot…

[OBJECTIVE] To summarize the reasons of complications after prosthetic augmentation mammaplasty and explore the optimal preventive measures and therapy. [METHOD] The reasons for 40 patients who were re-operated on after prosthetic augmenta…

We present our experience with augmentation mammaplasty on 14 patients with a thin chest wall and poor subcutaneous tissue. Thanks to Polytech Silimed code 20675, a new anatomical prosthesis filled with "soft" cohesive gel, the lodging in a…

In this paper, I report a case of delayed slow leakage (partial deflation) from an inflatable saline breast implant, 12 years after augmentation mammaplasty. The patient had a history of breast foreign body injection and developed a complic…

The earliest silicone breast implants were smooth-surface, silicone rubber devices filled with either silicone gel or saline. Because of persistent problems with capsular contracture, polyurethane-covered silicone implants were developed as…

In a group of 331 augmentation mammaplasties performed at the Clinic of Plastic Surgery in Prague from 1994-1998, capsular contracture was recorded in 6% cosmetic and 12% of reconstruction operations. The main cause was, in particular, the …

The use of an expander/implant for augmentation mammaplasty allows for increased patient satisfaction in the postoperative period. Surgical time may be shortened as final volume determination is not an intraoperative concern, and secondary …

Although the histology of capsular tissue is well described in the literature, most studies in humans do not correlate histologic findings with implant age (number of years an implant was in place before sampling). As such, questions regard…

Restrictions ordered by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration on the use of silicone gel-filled breast implants, as well as patient and surgeon dissatisfaction with the aesthetic results sometimes attained with saline solution-filled implan…

Breast conservation therapy, consisting of lumpectomy, axillary node dissection, whole-breast irradiation, and a boost to the tumor bed, is an increasingly popular option for the treatment of breast cancer. Among patients with stage I and s…

We have performed agumentation mammplasty on 867 patients since 1989. Twenty-seven of them had their prostheses removed for various reasons including infection, pain, rupture or exposure of the implant, capsular contracture, psychopath, etc…

The utility of the endoscope was realized in a retrospective analysis of 92 consecutive patients undergoing augmentation mammaplasty with saline-filled textured implants. The transaxillary submuscular approach was used. All patients receive…

Complications and outcomes were monitored following the implantation of 1655 breast implants over a 15-year period. Smooth, polyurethane, and textured implants were used in a variety of clinical settings. The time course of capsular contrac…

The Baker classification of capsular contracture remains the most popular and practical method of assessing clinical firmness of the breast after augmentation mammaplasty. This classification system was never intended to describe prosthetic…

The recent Food and Drug Administration hearings have brought new attention to breast implants and the importance of mammography in these patients to detect unsuspected breast pathology and complications of this surgical procedure. More pat…

[OBJECTIVE] To measure the effect of various parameters on mammographic visualization of the breast after augmentation mammaplasty. [DESIGN] Preoperative and postoperative mammography was performed in patients undergoing augmentation mamma…

Since 1986 we used the permanent expandable implant (PEI) as the first choice of prosthesis in breast surgery. The possibilities offered by multiple over-expansions and deflations have been explored: 224 PEI were utilized in 162 patients fo…

We conducted a double-blind, retrospective comparison between low-bleed and non-low-bleed (conventional) mammary implants because no controlled study has shown a difference in the degree of capsular contracture between the two types of impl…

Breast conservation therapy (wide local excision, axillary lymph node dissection, and whole-breast irradiation) is an increasingly popular alternative to mastectomy for breast cancer patients. A sizable (and growing) number of breast cancer…

42 of 63 cases of bilateral augmentation mammaplasty using polyurethane-covered prostheses, so-called Ashley "Natural-Y" prostheses were seen 15 to 17 years after the primary operation. Two implants had previously been replaced by Cronin ge…
