An improved method of removing polyurethane foam-covered gel prostheses.

Abstract:

:One of the advantages of polyurethane foam-covered prostheses has been that in the first 5 to 10 years after their use, the amount of capsular contraction was found much less than when similar "slick" prostheses were used. Another advance was their fixation to the surrounding tissue thus giving a more natural appearance and movement with the muscles when the arms were moved in any direction. The formation of a thick capsule also acted as a protection against gel granuloma due to rupture of the prosthesis and has been thought to be a factor in the lower capsule contraction rate. The greatest disadvantage has been that its removal was extremely difficult and this has continued up until the technique described in this paper has been introduced.
