Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Oncology
  • Reconstructive Surgery

Background:

  • Immediate breast reconstruction (IBR) with direct-to-implant (DTI) is performed concurrently with mastectomy.
  • This approach aims to assess the feasibility, safety, and effectiveness of DTI IBR.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the indications, techniques, and outcomes of one-stage DTI IBR.
  • To determine the suitability and safety of DTI IBR in breast cancer patients.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of one-stage DTI IBR, including use of acellular dermal matrix (ADM), synthetic mesh, or fat grafting.
  • Analysis of indications, preoperative work-up, surgical techniques, postoperative care, outcomes, and complications.

Main Results:

  • IBR is suitable for small-to-medium nonptotic breasts; contraindicated with radiotherapy due to high complication rates.
  • ADM use can facilitate implant coverage, potentially reducing postoperative pain.
  • While IBR has higher rates of flap necrosis, reoperation, and implant loss than two-stage reconstruction, it offers advantages like no secondary surgery and faster recovery.

Conclusions:

  • One-stage DTI IBR demonstrates favorable outcomes and high patient satisfaction.
  • The use of ADM has contributed to a shift towards IBR from conventional reconstruction.
  • Careful patient selection is key to mitigating the drawbacks of IBR.
