Microsurgical Breast Reconstruction.
This article reviews the approach to microsurgical breast reconstruction. Innovations including the role of indocyanine green angiography, resensation, adapting techniques for safe outcomes in an obese patient population, robotic deep infer…

Comparison of hypofractionation and conventional fractionation in postmastectomy radiotherapy after immediate breast reconstruction: A systematic review and meta-analysis of complications.
[BACKGROUND] The optimal radiotherapy regimen following mastectomy and immediate breast reconstruction remains under active investigation. In particular, the safety of moderate hypofractionation (HF) compared to conventional fractionation (…

Evidence-based Algorithms for Free Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator Flap Salvage in Autologous Breast Reconstruction.
[BACKGROUND] Breast reconstruction with the deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) free flap has become the gold standard for autologous breast reconstruction. Flap take-back to the operating room (OR) is an uncommon but difficult situa…

Simulating the IMA Recipient Site for DIEP Flap Surgery: A New Model for Dynamic Microsurgery Simulation with Real-Time Respiration and a Pilot Study.
[BACKGROUND] Breast reconstruction (BR) using autologous free flaps has been shown to have numerous psychosocial and quality-of-life benefits. Unfortunately, the microsurgical learning curve is quite steep due to some unique operative chal…

Practice Patterns in Primary Breast Augmentation: A 16-Year Review of Continuous Certification Tracer Data from the American Board of Plastic Surgery.
[BACKGROUND] As part of the continuous certification process, the American Board of Plastic Surgery collects case data for specific tracer procedures in aesthetic surgery to assess practice improvement by the diplomates. These case-based da…

Surgeon Gender-Related Differences in Operative Coding in Plastic Surgery.
[BACKGROUND] Numerous studies in the medical and surgical literature have discussed the income gap between male and female physicians, but none has adequately accounted for the disparity. [METHODS] This study was performed to determine whe…

Breast implant-associated EBV-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma: Two case reports and literature review.
Lymphomas associated with breast implants are mostly of the T-cell type. They are predominantly anaplastic lymphoma kinase-negative anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALK-negative ALCL) characterized by CD30 positivity universally. Whilst the …

Breast Reconstruction Following Breast Implant-Associated Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma.
[BACKGROUND] Standard of care treatment of breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) involves surgical resection with implant removal and complete capsulectomy. We report a case series of BIA-ALCL reconstruction wi…

Impact of Prior Tissue Expander/Implant on Postmastectomy Free Flap Breast Reconstruction.
[BACKGROUND] Implant-based breast reconstructions can result in unsatisfactory results requiring surgical revision or salvage reconstructive surgery with autologous tissue. This study compares the outcomes and complications of salvage (tert…
-
Comparison of implant-based immediate breast reconstruction with and without acellular dermal matrix.
[BACKGROUND] Acellular dermal matrix is frequently used in implant-based breast reconstruction to cover the inferior aspect of the breast pocket. Its performance profile remains equivocal. The authors studied whether adding it in implant-ba…

Pathogenesis of radiation-induced capsular contracture in tissue expander and implant breast reconstruction.
[BACKGROUND] Capsular contracture is the main complication in postmastectomy tissue expander and implant breast reconstruction in patients requiring radiotherapy. There is evidence that the wingless signaling pathway plays a central role in…
