The partial AlloDerm™ sling: reducing allograft costs associated with breast reconstruction
KJ Chepla, JR Dagget, HT Soltanian - Journal of plastic, reconstructive & …, 2012 - Elsevier
BACKGROUND: Many surgeons now incorporate Acellular Dermal Matrix (ADM) into
expander-based breast reconstruction. ADM is safe, provides full expander coverage,
eliminates the need for additional muscular dissection and has improved aesthetic
outcomes. However, its use increases surgical costs. Whether this cost is offset by
decreased operative times or a reduced number of revision procedures is unknown.
METHODS: We have developed a new technique that minimises the amount of ADM …
