INFECTION, COMPLICATION
Two hundred eighty-seven females receiving MemoryGel Xtra breast implants were enrolled. Complication rates in the primary augmentation cohort included rates of 1.5% for implant-related reoperation, 2.3% for explantation, and 1.5% for Baker grade III or IV capsular contracture. For the revisional augmentation cohort, these rates were 2.8% for implant-related reoperation, 4.3% for explantation, and 3.0% for capsular contracture. For the primary reconstruction cohort, these rates were 12.0% for implant-related reoperation, 12.3% for explantation, and 7.3% for capsular contracture. For the revisional reconstruction cohort, these rates were 7.1% for capsular contracture, with zero implant-related reoperations or explantations. There were no reports of infection or implant malposition or displacement in any of these cohorts. Each cohort showed significantly improved satisfaction with breasts and psychosocial and sexual well-being at 1 year following the primary procedure.
