“…Another paper about the use of polyester mesh (Mersilene) in 73 patients reported an explantation rate of 4.1%, although the surgical technique included an abdominal advancement flap [62]. One abstract reported similar results with polyester mesh, titanium mesh, and ADM in 104 cases, with excellent results in 67.3% of them [63].…”

Quoting one of the great masters in breast reconstruction, Scott L Spear, "the primary mission of a physician is to help his or her patients; the higher mission of a medical textbook is to help other physicians help even more patients". With this target in mind, this book has been devised to collect some recent data on a worldwide health problem. Breast cancer constitutes a notable problem in women's health and therefore a burdensome weight for society. Attempts to widen the knowledge on this disease, either at its preclinical (genetics) or clinical phase (diagnosis, treatment) are always welcome since they may lead to a decrease in the suffering (pain, physical dysfunctions, disfiguration, depression and so on) and a lengthening in survival of the patients. Authors have been busy to provide valuable information in these areas, so it is my hope that this book contributes in part to the mission expressed above.

The use of biological matrices in immediate implant-based breast reconstruction arose with the need to reinforce the lower pole of the breast and to cover the implant to reduce the risk of implant exposure. Synthetic mesh appears to be a lower cost alternative to biological matrices. This literature review aims to assess the usefulness of the use of synthetic meshes in breast reconstruction compared with the traditional techniques and whether outcomes and complications of synthetic meshes and biological matrices are comparable. The positioning of the implants and meshes, either submuscular or subcutaneous, has also been considered.
