Understanding the Phenomena of Aging and Rupture of Breast Implants

NCT05527132 · Status: RECRUITING · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 50

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Breast implants, like all implantable medical devices, are subject to wear and tear as they age in the body. In addition to this wear and tear, they are subject to external trauma, whether accidental during daily life, during insertion or during mammography.

The kinetics and mechanisms of aging are poorly studied and the phenomenon of implant rupture is not elucidated. However, studies of older generation implants have shown that implant rupture is correlated with the duration of implantation.
