Anatomical Breast Implant Assessment Using Ultrasound: A Case Series from the International Breast Implant Check Clinic.

Background: Breast augmentation with anatomic implants can achieve a natural look, but over time, implant-related complications can occur. This includes a risk of potential rotation, which can cause a change in breast shape. Reported rates of rotation vary widely (0%-42%).

Six-Year Evaluation of Motiva Round and Ergonomix SmoothSilk Surface Silicone Breast Implants: A Two-Center, Two-Surgeon Outcome Analysis of 1053 Primary and Secondary Breast Augmentations and Augmentation Mastopexy.

Background: The emerging concerns around breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma and other chronic inflammatory-related conditions have instigated a wider use of smooth devices.

Objectives: The authors aimed to present 6-year data following the introduction of Motiva implants (Establishment Labs Holdings Inc.; Alajuela, Costa Rica) into their previously texture-dominated practice.

Breast augmentation surgery using an inframammary fold incision in Southeast Asian women: Patient-reported outcomes.

Background: This analysis presents patient-reported outcomes of breast augmentation procedures performed in Singapore using an inframammary fold incision and the "5 Ps" best practice principles for breast augmentation. These data are the first of their kind in Southeast Asian patients.

Methods: Through a retrospective chart review, patients who underwent primary breast augmentation with anatomical form-stable silicone gel breast implants using an inframammary fold incision were followed for ≥6 months postoperatively.

MBN 2016 Aesthetic Breast Meeting BIA-ALCL Consensus Conference Report.

Breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) is an uncommon neoplasia occurring in women with either cosmetic or reconstructive breast implants. The actual knowledge about BIA-ALCL deriving from the literature presents several limits, and it remains difficult to make inferences about BIA-ALCL epidemiology, cause, and pathogenesis. This is the reason why the authors decided to organize an evidence-based consensus conference during the Maurizio Bruno Nava (MBN 2016) Aesthetic Breast Meeting held in Milan in December of 2016.

International importance of robust breast device registries.

Background: Breast implants are high-risk devices that have been at the epicenter of much debate and controversy. In light of the Poly Implant Prothèse crisis, data registries among 11 national societies around the world are cooperatively calling for the urgent need to establish robust national clinical quality registries based on international best practice within a framework of international collaboration.

Methods: A survey was conducted on the historic and current status of national breast device registries.
