Abstract:
Objective When implantation of a prosthesis is performed for patients with a local defect of the breast after the removal of polyacrylamide hydrogel,incomplete coverage of the surface of the prosthesis occurs in these cases.The aim of this study was to explore the effectiveness of acellular allogeneic dermis in the repair of defects after prosthesis implantation.Methods Breast prosthesis implantation together with acellular allogeneic dermis repair was performed in 46 cases.Acellular allogeneic dermis was applied to cover the surface of the prosthesis,and interrupted suture was used between the margin of the dermis and the incisional margin of the gland,while appropriate tension was maintained.Results There were no complications occurred postoperatively.Correction of local depression in the breast was excellent in all cases.Histological examination showed the implanted acellular allogeneic dermis was integrated into the peripheral tissue.Conclusions Acellular allogeneic dermis can be used for repairing breast and muscle defects,in order to cover the prosthesis.Although it cannot significantly increase the thickness of the subcutaneous tissue,it can maintain the integrity of the peripheral tension around the prosthesis.In this way,it can avoid bulging of the prosthesis caused by a sudden reduction of local tension.Moreover,donor site injury is avoided.Acellular allogeneic dermis is an effective method for the repair of local breast defects.
