ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

Background:

Capsular contracture is one of the most common and severe complications after implant-based breast reconstruction. Recently, prepectoral implant-based breast reconstruction using acellular dermal matrix (ADM) has become an alternative to subpectoral implant-based reconstruction. However, risk factors for capsular contracture associated with recent prepectoral reconstruction trends are not well refined yet. Thus, the aim of this study was to determine risk factors for capsular contracture, and share our experience of treating capsular contracture in prepectoral reconstruction.

Methods:

This retrospective comparative study focused on 110 patients who underwent prepectoral implant-based breast reconstruction with ADM. Risk factors of capsular contracture were analyzed by comparing a capsular contracture group (27 cases) and a non-capsular contracture group (83 cases). Secondary treatment after capsular contracture development was analyzed in capsular contracture group.

Results:

According to univariate and multivariate analyses of risk factors for capsular contracture, single staged implant-based reconstruction (direct-to-implant), infection, and postoperative radiotherapy were significantly related to the development of capsular contracture. Also, surgical intervention including capsulectomy and capsulotomy with implant change showed a significant higher remission rate than other groups.

Conclusions:

Our study provides insights into risk factors and treatment choices for capsular contracture after prepectoral implant-based breast reconstruction with ADM. These findings can aid selection of patients, postoperative care and preventative treatment before reconstruction.
