Abstract:
Breast implants are widely used in breast plastic surgery. Capsular contracture after breast implant surgeries remains as a common complication and difficult to solve, which is often related to the success or failure of the operations. Therefore, how to prevent capsular contracture after prosthesis implantation has always been a hot issue in breast plastic surgery. The exploration of the causes of capsular contracture has never stopped, but its etiology has not been fully clarified. Subclinical infection may be one of the important causes of capsular contracture. To prevent the occurrence of subclinical infection, many method have been used. Among them, pocket irrigation is considered as an effective way in preventing bacterial adhesion, thus preventing the occurrence of subclinical infection, and finally preventing capsule contracture. However, many kinds of antibacterial irrigation can be used in clinics. There is still a lack of consensus on which irrigation solution has the optimal effect. This paper analyzes and summarizes the status of application regarding antibacterial irrigation solution in breast prosthesis implantation, to provide suggestion for its clinical application.
