Reconstructive surgery often confronts large tissue defects. This creates a need to look for
materials that are immunogenic but offer the possibility of tissue filling. ADM—acellular …

Many pathologies, congenital defects, and traumatic injuries are untreatable by conventional
pharmacologic or surgical interventions. Regenerative engineering represents an ever …

With improvement in mastectomy skin flap viability and increasing recognition of animation
deformity following sub-pectoral implant placement, there has been a transition toward pre …

Background: Coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) poses unique challenges for breast
reconstruction. At the authors' institution, COVID-19 postoperative protocols mandated …

Background: Implant-based reconstruction is the most common method of immediate breast
reconstruction in the United States, with acellular dermal matrices (ADMs) playing a …

Modern tissue engineering has made substantial advancements that have revolutionized
plastic surgery. Acellular dermal matrix (ADM) is an example that has gained considerable …

Background The use of an acellular dermal matrix is advantageous for direct-to-implant
breast reconstruction after skin-preserving mastectomy, but is associated with postoperative …

As a biologic product derived from human tissue, acellular dermal matrices did not require
premarket approval for their initial use as a soft-tissue support product. Since their first use in …

Background Acellular dermal matrix (ADM) is frequently utilized in prepectoral breast
reconstruction, but few studies have examined the role of ADM type in complication risk …

Background Textured implants and expanders are associated with an increased risk of
breast implant–associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL). As a result, plastic …
