Background. One‐stage direct‐to‐implant immediate breast reconstruction (IBR) is
performed simultaneously with breast cancer resection. We explored indications …

Background: Use of acellular dermal matrix for implant-based breast reconstruction appears
to be associated with a lower incidence of capsular contracture compared with standard …

Capsular contracture, which is the pathologic development of fibrous capsules around
implants, is a major complication of reconstructive and aesthetic breast surgeries. Capsular …

Background: Since the introduction of nipple-sparing mastectomy as an oncologically safe
procedure for the treatment of breast cancer, reconstructive efforts for immediate staged …

Background: Breast reconstruction is rapidly evolving, because of the changing face of
cancer surgery and the growing acceptance of acellular dermal matrices and synthetic …

Background A large number of clinical studies have suggested that acellular dermal matrix
(ADM) can decrease the incidence of capsular contracture in implant-based breast …

Background: Acellular dermal matrix has enjoyed extensive use in primary and secondary
alloplastic breast aesthetic and reconstructive surgery. The objective of this study was to …

Background: Implant-based breast reconstruction is commonly avoided in the setting of
radiation therapy, mainly because of risks of capsular contracture. Nevertheless, as breast …

Background: Acellular dermal matrices are commonly used to support implant-based breast
reconstruction. Meshing may enhance integration, reduce drain time and seroma, and …
