Abstract
Background: Prepectoral (PP) immediate implant-based breast reconstruction (IBBR) is gaining popularity over the retropectoral (RP) breast reconstruction technique. This study aims to compare complication rates across different body mass index (BMI) groups in patients undergoing PP or RP IBBR.
Methods: A monocentric retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who underwent mastectomy and IBBR from January 2018 to December 2023. Preoperative characteristics, BMI, type of mastectomy procedure, PP or RR implant placement, and postoperative outcomes were collected and analyzed.
Results: A total of 217 patients were included, representing 276 IBBRs. The overall complication rate on a per breast basis was 26.4%. The overall complication rate did not differ across BMI groups (P = 0.314) and between PP and RP IBBR (P = 0.8083). In the PP group, anemia rate increased with low BMI (odds ratio [OR] 0.0215, P = 0.033) and skin complications were more frequent with higher BMI (OR 0.0428, P = 0.0389). In the RP group, higher BMI was correlated with a higher seroma rate in the RP IBBR group (OR 1.2045, P = 0.0334) and a longer hospital length of stay (coefficient 0.248, adjusted R² 0.082, SD 0.098, P = 0.014).
Conclusions: PP IBBR was associated with a significantly higher rate of anemia in patients with low BMI, and a significantly higher rate of skin complications in high BMI. RP IBBR was associated with higher seroma rate and longer hospital length of stay in patients with higher BMI.
期刊介绍：
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery—Global Open is an open access, peer reviewed, international journal focusing on global plastic and reconstructive surgery.Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery—Global Open publishes on all areas of plastic and reconstructive surgery, including basic science/experimental studies pertinent to the field and also clinical articles on such topics as: breast reconstruction, head and neck surgery, pediatric and craniofacial surgery, hand and microsurgery, wound healing, and cosmetic and aesthetic surgery. Clinical studies, experimental articles, ideas and innovations, and techniques and case reports are all welcome article types. Manuscript submission is open to all surgeons, researchers, and other health care providers world-wide who wish to communicate their research results on topics related to plastic and reconstructive surgery. Furthermore, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery—Global Open, a complimentary journal to Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, provides an open access venue for the publication of those research studies sponsored by private and public funding agencies that require open access publication of study results. Its mission is to disseminate high quality, peer reviewed research in plastic and reconstructive surgery to the widest possible global audience, through an open access platform. As an open access journal, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery—Global Open offers its content for free to any viewer. Authors of articles retain their copyright to the materials published. Additionally, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery—Global Open provides rapid review and publication of accepted papers.
