Response to The Benefit of Acellular Dermal Matrix Placement in Primary Breast Surgery May Outweigh the Cost in Patients at High Risk of Capsular Contracture

摘要

We appreciate Dr Kornstein’s interest in our study evaluating capsulectomy, implant exchange, and placement of acellular dermal matrix (ADM) as an effective treatment of capsular contracture in primary breast augmentation patients. We agree that the cause of capsular contracture has not yet been thoroughly elucidated and that identifying those patients at risk could prove beneficial in offering them prophylactic treatment.
