Significance of shoulder function in the reconstruction of prehension with double free-muscle transfer after complete paralysis of the brachial plexus.

abstract：BACKGROUND:This study evaluated patients who underwent primary breast surgery within a single group practice from 1994 to 2009. Reoperations were divided by reoperation reason into total reoperations and implant-specific reoperations. The authors hypothesized that the implant-specific reoperation rate will provide the ...
