Rottura della protesi mammaria, il ruolo fondamentale dell’arto dominante.

Breast implants are widely used in cosmetic and reconstructive surgery, for example, for breast augmentation, a surgical procedure recommended to increase breast size for patients with small or underdeveloped breasts, as well as for patients who have undergone breast reduction. Currently, approximately 90% of implanted breast implants are made of silicone gel. Although these devices are an important resource, capable of improving the lives of thousands of women, they can sometimes rupture. It is believed that in most cases, repetitive mechanical forces damage and wear down the implant structure. Furthermore, with the passing of time, the risk of implant rupture tends to increase. A group of researchers sought to determine whether the dominant limb represents a risk factor for breast implant rupture on the same side. The research confirmed the hypothesis that the dominant arm plays a key role in breast implant rupture. In fact, the cyclical movement of the same limb exposes the prosthesis to greater mechanical stress, which, over time, can cause irreparable damage to the device. 0:00 | Introduction 0:22 | What are breast implants and when are they used? 1:19 | How are they made? 1:36 | Implant rupture 1:59 | Can the dominant limb influence implant rupture? 2:29 | The study 2:58 | The study results 3:23 | Conclusions 3:45 | Final remarks For further details, please refer to the full article: https://www.med4.care/rottura-protesi... 👉 Would you like to create an animated video to present your practice or to explain medical topics to your patients?
