Prevention of capsular contracture.

چکیده
A total of 95 percent of implants are placed under the muscle. The placement of the implant in the submuscular plane allows for constant massage, decreased potential contamination of the implant through the breast ducts, and less chance of hematoma formation. This is because of the decreased vascularity of the submuscular plane as compared with the subglandular plane.' Although we cannot report exact statistics, we have found that the majority of capsular contractures have been in subglandular augmentations.

Breast Massage, Implant Displacement, and Prevention of Capsular Contracture After Breast Augmentation With Implants: A Review of the Literature
Objective: Capsular contracture, the most common complication following breast augmentation with implants, is a complex inflammatory reaction that ultimately leads to fibrosis at the contact site between the implant and tissue. A number of peri-, pre-, and postoperative techniques have been postulated and implemented by many surgeons to reduce the incidence of capsular contracture. Breast massa...
متن کاملTextured surface breast implants in the prevention of capsular contracture among breast augmentation patients: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
BACKGROUND Capsular contracture is a common complication associated with the use of breast implants. Numerous randomized controlled trials addressing the efficacy of textured surface breast implants in reducing capsular contracture have yielded nonuniform results. This meta-analysis addresses the use of textured breast implants in the prevention of capsular contracture. METHODS MEDLINE, EMBAS...
متن کاملPilot study of association of bacteria on breast implants with capsular contracture.
Capsular contracture is the most common and frustrating complication in women who have undergone breast implantation. Its cause and, accordingly, treatment and prevention remain to be elucidated fully. The aim of this prospective observational pilot study was to test the hypothesis that the presence of bacteria on breast implants is associated with capsular contracture. We prospectively studied...

INTRODUCTION Capsular contraction (CC) occurring with inflatable penile prosthesis (IPP) reservoirs has been reported by urologists as a cause of autoinflation. The concept of CC occurring around IPP cylinders has not been studied. AIMS Herein we report a case of CC occurring with nonlength-expanding IPP cylinders, resulting in an S-shaped deformity. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES We sought to repor...
