Article Synopsis
- Local morphological reactions around breast implants might indicate systemic immune responses related to silicone materials.
- The study analyzed 149 explanted mammoplasty prostheses to evaluate their capsule tissues under different microscopy methods, noting inflammation patterns that progressively advanced over time.
- Findings revealed that while the surface texture of implants influenced the inflammation's progression, it did not alter its underlying quality; notable immune responses and tissue reactions were observed in some cases, suggesting variability in individual susceptibilities.
