Surgical Outcomes of Prepectoral Versus Subpectoral Implant-based Breast Reconstruction in Young Women

Abstract: Background: Two-staged implant-based reconstruction (IBR) is the most common breast reconstructive modality. Recently, technological and surgical advances have encouraged surgeons to revisit prepectoral IBR. Data comparing prepectoral against subpectoral IBR in women under the age of 40 are lacking.

“…However, there is a paucity of literature offering a direct comparison between the prepectoral approach to the more traditional dual plane approach in the setting of immediate reconstruction. The only study to offer such a comparison was published by Manrique et al 23 . which demonstrated comparable outcomes between both techniques in women younger than 40 years.…”

“…Although many articles are reporting close to zero failure rate, others are reporting significant rates of complications. 5 , 27 30 Overall, 40.4% of respondents reported being “very” or “extremely” concerned about the possibility for wound healing complications in their prepectoral reconstruction cases. Open response data from the survey similarly echoed these concerns, with providers citing mastectomy flap necrosis, seroma, and infection as barriers to using this technique.…”
