Measurement of Capsular Contracture

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1989
At present, there is no accurate, reliable method of experimentally measuring capsular contracture. This study had four goals: (1) to define the parameters of capsular contracture employing principles of biomechanics of soft tissues, (2) to develop laboratory techniques to measure the parameters, (3) to design an implant that mechanically impedes the ...

The aetiopathogenesis of capsular contracture: A systematic review of the literature

Journal of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, 2018
Capsular contracture is the most frequent complication after breast augmentation or reconstruction with breast implants. The immune system plays a prominent role in capsular contracture formation, albeit to an unknown extent. Bacterial contamination in situ has been hypothesized to be causative for capsular contracture.
