RANCATI, A. et al. Breast implant explantation and simultaneous correction with inferior dermoglandular flap authoprosthesis technique. Cir. plást. iberolatinoam. [online]. 2014, vol.40, n.3, pp.271-277. ISSN 1989-2055. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S0376-78922014000300005.
Plastic surgeons are frequently faced during consultation with patients who want or need breast implant explantation. Some of these patients reject the idea of a prosthetic replacement, but are demanding with the postoperative cosmetic result. We describe the technique used in 68 consecutive cases and our results to deal with breast alterations after breast implant explantation, leaving a decreased mammary volume, ptosis and a loosy cutaneous excedent. With this technique of explantation and simultaneous breast correction with de-epithelialized dermoglandular flap, "authoprosthesis", associated with simultaneous fat grafting, we can get a good result regarding the shape, projection and coning of the explanted breast, with high patient satisfaction.
