Salvage of Failed Prosthetic Breast Reconstructions by Autologous Conversion With Free Tissue Transfers
OBJECTIVE Implant-based breast reconstructions are conceptually simple but prone to surgical revisions. Additional procedures often fail to address the problems associated with the reconstructive outcome, especially in patients who have received radiotherapy. However, conversion to free flaps may improve symptoms and aesthetic results. We reviewed our experience in the United Kingdom with autol...
متن کاملSalvage of Infected Breast Implants
BACKGROUND Implant-based breast reconstruction is being performed more frequently, and implants are associated with an increased risk of infection. We reviewed the clinical features of cases of implant infection and investigated the risk factors for breast device salvage failure. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 771 patients who underwent implant-based breast reconstruction between January...
متن کاملRole of Muscle Free Flap in the Salvage of Complicated Scalp Wounds and Infected Prosthetic Dura
BACKGROUND The prosthetic dura is an essential element in the protection of the cranial parenchyma and prevention of cerebrospinal fluid leakage. Although prosthetic dura are widely used in neurosurgery, they occasionally provoke infection, which can be a major concern after neurosurgical treatment. However, removal of the prosthetic dura carries a risk of brain parenchyma injury and cerebrospi...
متن کاملTracking the aesthetic outcomes of prosthetic breast reconstructions that have complications.
BACKGROUND Aesthetic results following breast reconstruction have been shown to be a major contributor to patient satisfaction. While many presume that complications after reconstruction impact final aesthetic results, little data exist to substantiate this putative relationship. OBJECTIVE To track and evaluate aesthetic outcomes following implant reconstructions with complications. METHODS...
متن کاملAbstract: The Use of Antibiotic Beads to Salvage the Infected Breast Implant
INTRODUCTION: Tissue expander(TE) and implant infection is the most common cause of surgical readmission following breast reconstruction. The goals of this study are (1) to characterize a cohort of patients who were treated with IV antibiotics for suspected infection after prosthetic breast reconstruction, (2) to identify local microbiome and (3) elucidate an optimal antibiotic treatment protoc...
