[BACKGROUND] This study aimed to explore the treatment of capsular contracture after augmentation mammaplasty by insertion of a breast prosthesis anterior to the original capsule. [METHODS] Through transaxillary or submammary incisions and…

[BACKGROUND] Capsular contracture is one of the most common complications associated with breast implants. While the cause of this process has not yet been elucidated, subclinical infection is a likely culprit. [OBJECTIVES] The authors ass…

[BACKGROUND] Capsular contracture remains the most common complication following augmentation mammaplasty. The infective hypothesis implicates subclinical infection with biofilm in its pathogenesis. The authors developed an in vivo model of…

[BACKGROUND] Difficulties that arise with subpectoral breast implant placement include the following: malpositioning of the implant; improper superior contouring; and unnatural movement with chest muscle contraction. Correction of these def…

Many studies indicate that subclinical bacterial colonization plays a pivotal role in capsular contracture. Nevertheless, it has not been clarified whether bacterial stimuli are only associated with high-grade (Baker III/IV) or low-grade (B…

Augmentation mammaplasty is rapidly becoming one of the most frequently performed cosmetic surgeries. However, as the augmented patient population ages, major concerns associated with the screening, diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer …

After augmentation mammaplasty, either subglandular or submuscular, the most typical complication to occur is capsule formation or its advanced form, capsular contracture. Even the less severe capsule formation can cause a feeling of discom…

Subfascial placement of implants was introduced 3 years ago. Collected data reveal very promising short-term and long-term results in comparison with subglandular and subpectoral positioned implants. The clinical experiences of 69 breast au…

Capsular contracture is one of the major complications of augmentation mammaplasty. A review of 638 augmented breasts in 319 consecutive patients who underwent primary augmentation, with an average follow-up of 17.2 months and without a sin…

The pathogenesis of fibrous capsular contracture after augmentation mammaplasty is still debated. One hypothesis implicates low-grade bacterial infections as a cause. The presence of a staphylococcal biofilm in a patient with recurrent caps…

[BACKGROUND] Breast reconstruction after mastectomy represents an improvement in the quality of life of breast cancer patients. Radiotherapy is also suggested for many of them to prevent local relapse. However, irradiation increases the ris…

A new submuscular-subglandular technique to correct teardrop-shaped breasts using round prostheses is presented. In this technique the prostheses are only partially covered by muscle. The muscle is also divided to enhance the projection at …

[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 …

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…
