We evaluated the association between radiation therapy and severe capsular contracture or reoperation after 717 delayed breast implant reconstruction procedures (288 1- and 429 2-stage procedures) identified in the prospective database of t…

Studies of complications following reconstructive surgery with implants among women with breast cancer are needed. As the, to our knowledge, first prospective long-term study we evaluated the occurrence of complications following delayed br…

[BACKGROUND] The number of women suitable for breast conserving treatment as well as immediate reconstruction after breast cancer has been increasing, and studies of complications hereafter are needed. [MATERIAL AND METHODS] The cohort was…

[BACKGROUND] Prospective long-term data on the occurrence of complications following breast augmentation are sparse and the reported frequencies differ substantially. [METHODS] The Danish Registry for Plastic Surgery of the Breast has pros…

[BACKGROUND] Large-scale epidemiologic studies to date have not found any credible association between silicone breast implants and either well-defined connective tissue diseases or undefined or atypical connective tissue diseases. It has b…

Few implantable medical devices have been studied for their safety more extensively than silicone gel-filled breast implants. We summarize the epidemiologic evidence on the safety of breast implants, most of which is drawn from large cohort…

[BACKGROUND] To assess whether maternal cosmetic breast implants are associated with adverse health outcomes among offspring, the authors examined published findings of epidemiologic studies that addressed this hypothesis. [METHODS] Four e…

While it has been demonstrated that prophylactic mastectomy reduces breast cancer incidence among women at high risk, many women often consider this disfiguring surgery unacceptable. One alternative approach may be breast reduction surgery.…

Concerns regarding potential health effects of silicone breast implants have recently shifted from long-term illnesses to postoperative local complications. In this study, occurrence of local complications and treatment procedures were eval…

[BACKGROUND] No epidemiological evidence of an association between silicone breast implants and connective tissue disease has been found. Based on case reports, it has been hypothesized that silicone breast implants may be associated with a…

Numerous meta-analyses, weight-of-the-evidence, and critical reviews have summarized data from case-control and cohort studies, published through 1999, which have been conducted to evaluate the potential association between cosmetic silicon…

Prophylactic bilateral mastectomy has been demonstrated to reduce breast cancer incidence in women with a high inherited susceptibility to breast cancer. For the majority of high-risk women, however, bilateral prophylactic mastectomy is not…

Four epidemiologic studies have examined mortality among women with cosmetic silicone gel-filled breast implants and have found that risk of death from suicide is two- to threefold higher in this group than among women of comparable age in …

Recent epidemiologic studies of women with cosmetic breast implants indicate a statistically significant 2- to 3-fold increase in suicide risk when compared with the general population. Over the last decade, of the large number of epidemiol…

Concern has been raised recently regarding the absence of information on the occurrence and severity of local complications after cosmetic breast implantation. The authors evaluated the occurrence of local complications in a large epidemiol…

To assess whether maternal breast implants are related to adverse health outcomes in offspring, the authors conducted a retrospective cohort study of esophageal disorders, rheumatic disease, and congenital malformations among 2,854 children…

The authors investigated the association between the occurrence of capsular contracture and implant and patient characteristics. All women with breast implants from 1977 to 1997 were identified from the files of two private plastic surgery …

Epidemiologic studies have found no association between breast implants and cancer or well-defined connective tissue diseases. However, women with cosmetic breast implants continue to report specific as well as nonspecific physical and psyc…

The aim of this study was to investigate whether women with silicone breast implants (SBI) present with a unique rheumatic symptomatology. We assessed the profile of rheumatic disease in six groups of women identified through Danish hospita…

[OBJECTIVE] To examine the occurrence of connective tissue diseases (CTDs) as well as ill-defined and other rheumatic conditions among Danish women with cosmetic silicone breast implants. [PATIENTS AND METHODS] A total of 2761 women with b…

To determine whether women with cosmetic breast implants have distinct demographic, lifestyle, and reproductive characteristics that put them at increased risk for subsequent morbidity, the authors compared 1,369 such women to 2,211 women w…
