    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Biomaterials Science
    • Regenerative Medicine

    Background:

    • Revision breast implant surgery often requires soft tissue reinforcement due to implant pocket instability.
    • Durasorb, a resorbable polydioxanone (PDO) mesh, is designed for soft tissue support.
    • Its properties facilitate tissue incorporation and provide support during healing.

    Observation:

    • A prospective case series included 17 patients (27 breasts) undergoing revision breast implant surgery using Durasorb PDO mesh.
    • Indications for surgery included implant malposition, capsular contracture, poor aesthetics, and ptosis.
    • Follow-up averaged 355 days.

    Findings:

    • One patient developed a post-operative seroma that resolved with aspiration.
    • No instances of infection, wound healing issues, or recurrence of implant malposition/capsular contracture were observed.
    • Durasorb PDO mesh demonstrated efficacy in reinforcing the breast implant pocket.

    Implications:

    • Durasorb PDO mesh is a viable option for soft tissue reinforcement in revision breast surgery.
    • The mesh offers a low complication rate and durable outcomes.
    • Its use may improve stability and aesthetic results in reoperative breast augmentation and reconstruction.
