Peri-implantitis is currently a topic of major interest in implantology. Considered one of the main reasons of late implant failure, there is an emerged concern whether implant characteristics could trigger inflammatory lesion and loss of supporting bone. The purpose of this narrative review is to provide an evidence based overview on the influence of implant-based factors in the occurrence of peri-implantitis. A literature review was conducted addressing the following topics: implant surface topography; implant location; occlusal overload; time in function; prosthesis-associated factors (rehabilitation extension, excess of cement and implant-abutment connection); and metal particle release. Although existing data suggests that some implant-based factors may increase the risk of peri-implantitis, the evidence is still limited to consider them a true risk factor for peri-implantitis. In conclusion, further evidences are required to a better understanding of the influence of implant-based factors in the occurrence of peri-implantitis. Large population-based studies including concomitant analyses of implant- and patient-based factors are required to provide strong evidence of a possible association with peri-implantitis in a higher probability. The identification of these factors is essential for the establishment of strategies to prevent peri-implantitis.

The Age-Old Question in Nipple-Sparing Mastectomy: Is Older Age a Contraindication?
Ann Surg Oncol
January 2025
Breast Surgery Section, Division of GI and Oncologic Surgery, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA, USA.
Background: Nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) is infrequently performed in older women, at least in part owing to concerns regarding age-related complications. We describe postoperative outcomes of NSM in older women and risk factors for complications, with the goal of informing patient selection and decision-making.
Patients And Methods: Cases of NSM with immediate implant-based reconstruction were identified from an institutional database (2009-2019).

Background: Breast reconstruction practices, predominantly implant-based, have evolved, with meshes aiding in overcoming traditional limitations. However, data comparing mesh-assisted prepectoral reconstruction with implants alone are lacking. This study aimed to assess whether synthetic meshes in prepectoral reconstruction impact postoperative complications.

Division of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Emory University School of Medicine, Atlanta, GA, USA.
Background: Infectious complications associated with implant-based breast reconstruction (IBBR) can be devastating and may lead to reconstructive failure. While there are known demographic risk factors for reconstructive failure, few studies have identified intraoperative findings that predict failure after attempted salvage.
Objectives: The objective of this study was to identify intraoperative findings in infected breasts that may be predictive of implant failure.
Sinus Bone Graft Stability and Implant Survival Following Transalveolar Sinus Floor Elevation in Severely Atrophic Maxilla: A Retrospective Study With 5-8 Years of Follow-Up.

Objectives: To evaluate the clinical and radiographic results of transalveolar sinus floor elevation (TSFE) with grafting in cases of severely atrophic maxilla.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective analysis of clinical and radiographic data was conducted. Between 2015 and 2018, a total of 105 implants were placed in 105 patients over a follow-up period of 5-8 years.
Risk prediction of implant loss following implant-based breast reconstruction: a population-based study.
Plast Reconstr Surg
December 2024
Department of Plastic and Reconstructive surgery, Erasmus MC Cancer Institute, University Medical Center Rotterdam, Rotterdam, the Netherlands.
Introduction: Implant loss following implant-based breast reconstruction (IBBR) is a serious complication, resulting in re-operations, patient suffering, and a significant decrease in quality of life. This study aimed to create a validated risk prediction model for implant loss after IBBR using perioperative risk factors.
Methods: Patients who had undergone either a two-stage or a direct-to-implant postmastectomy IBBR were identified from the Dutch Breast Implant Registry (DBIR).
