Summary
The aim of the research is to evaluate clinical outcomes of a two stage muscle sparing prepectoral breast reconstruction using tissue expander (TE) entirely covered by an ADM. The authors aim to report surgical indications, technical tips, clinical and histological outcomes with the final objective of delineate a decision-making algorithm for immediate prosthetic breast reconstruction.
