Breast reconstruction with myocutaneous flaps in previously irradiated patients.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Tracking world cases of breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) is currently limited to patient registries at a few academic centers, dependent upon patient referral and case reports in the literature. The purpose of this study was to review and compare federal database adverse event ...
