ABSTRACT
Breast reconstruction is an essential part in the comprehensive management of breast cancer. The clinical application of patches (e.g., acellular dermal matrix, ADM) is the most impactful innovation in implant breast reconstruction in recent years. The wide application of patches in implant breast reconstruction promotes the development of immediate prosthetic reconstruction, im-proves the aesthetic outcomes of reconstructed breasts, and avoids additional donor tissue damage caused by autologous flap breast reconstruction. At present, patches used in breast reconstruction are mainly ADMs, bovine pericardial patches, and TiLOOP, which are widely used because of their good histocompatibility and tissue defect repair ability. This article reviews the applications and research statuses of these patches.
ABSTRACT
Bilateral mandibular first molars of 36 rabbits were extracted.The tooth extraction wounds were treated by:platelet-rich fibrin +acellular dermal matrix(group A),platelet-rich fibrin(group B),acellular dermal matrix (group C) and without treatment (group D,the control) (n =9) respectively.The measurments of alveolar bone height and width showed that there were no significant differences among groups at different times(P ＞ 0.05).Bone histomorphometry showed that at the 2th and 4th week,the best result was found in group A(P＜0.01).While,at the 8th week,the result of group A was still better than that of other 3 ones (P ＜ 0.01),but group B and C showed no significant difference(P ＞ 0.05).The combination of PRF and ADM shows the most significant effect.
