Rate of capsular contracture among different breast implants in the last two decades: a meta-analysis / 中华医学美学美容杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To study the rate of capsule contracture after operation of the textured surfaces breast implants and the smooth surfaces breast implants, to provide evidence for plastic surgeons to select the type of breast implants during breast augmentation.Methods:This study started from January 2018 to May 2019. Chinese and English databases including Wanfang Science and Technology Periodical Full-text Database, VIP Chinese Science and Technology Periodical Full-text Database (VIP) and CNKI, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Science Drirect Online were searched by computer. Some relevant studies were collected for this meta-analysis.Results:We identified 9 studies including a total of 13165 subjects for the meta-analysis. The OR value of the study was 0.43 (95% CI 0.35, 0.51), and the incidence rate of capsule contracture in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group. In cumulative meta-analysis and sensitivity test, the conclusion was stable. And there was no publication bias found by Egger regression test. Conclusions:The textured surfaces breast implants are better than the smooth surfaces breast implants in terms of incidence rate of capsule contracture after augmentation mammoplasty.
