Recurrence of subglandular breast implant capsular contracture: anterior versus total capsulectomy.

Abstract：

:The objective of this study was to determine whether the type of capsulectomy, anterior or total, affects the recurrence of capsular contracture around subglandular silicone-gel breast implants. A retrospective analysis was performed of patients who underwent either anterior or total capsulectomy for Baker grade 3 or 4 subglandular capsular contracture in our unit. All patients were invited to a review clinic where their capsular status was assessed. There were 100 anterior- disc capsulectomies in 60 patients between 1988 and 1997 and 99 total capsulectomies in 60 patients between 1990 and 1998. The follow-up in the former group was a median of 7 years and mean 6.9 years, compared with median 2.5 and mean 3.1 years in the latter group. Eighty-six percent of the implants removed from both groups at capsulectomy were smooth-walled gel-filled implants. Sixty-nine breasts in the anterior group received textured gel implants at capsulectomy; the remaining 31 received polyurethane-coated Meme implants. In the total capsulectomy group, all but two breasts (one patient) received textured gel implants. After review, the capsular status was known in 80 percent of the anterior and 92 percent of the total capsulectomy group. The review clinic found eight new contractures in five patients to have developed in the anterior compared with none in the total group. Recurrent contractures affected 50 percent of patients (46 percent of breasts) in the anterior and 11 percent of patients (10 percent of breasts) in the total capsulectomy group. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was applied to the data. By including only patients who received textured gel implants at capsulectomy, the Logrank found a statistical difference between the two treatment groups (0.01 < p < 0.5). We believe that this study provides some evidence that total capsulectomy for subglandular silicone breast implant capsular contracture results in a lower capsular recurrence than anterior- disc capsulectomy. The pattern and risk of recurrence after total capsulectomy and exchange for a modern textured prosthesis appear to approach those following primary augmentation.
