bovine pericardium

A cross-section from the implant outwards to the skin. Closest to the implant, the compact layer of the membrane, described by the manufacturer as providing a smooth surface towards the device. Above it, the porous layer, described as the side that supports early tissue integration, with small arrows showing cells and vessels entering it from the flap. Above that, the mastectomy flap and skin. A note reminds the reader to confirm orientation in the Instructions for Use for each configuration.

ExaShape in Practice: Which Configuration, Which Patient, and How to Use It

Why ExaShape, in which cases, which configuration, and how it is used in theatre, from the flap decision to the refinement stage.

A grid of seven questions. One, what was the design: randomised, prospective cohort or retrospective series. Two, which plane: prepectoral, subpectoral or dual plane. Three, one stage or two: direct-to-implant or expander. Four, who was included: flap thickness, smoking, BMI, radiotherapy, prior surgery. Five, how long was follow-up, since late complications such as capsular contracture need years. Six, how were complications defined and counted: per patient or per breast, minor and major, and whether rippling counts. Seven, who did it and who paid: learning curve, number of surgeons, and conflicts of interest. A closing line states that two numbers are only comparable if the answers match.

Two cross-sections of a reconstructed breast. On the left, subpectoral placement with a mesh sling: the pectoralis major covers the upper part of the implant and a mesh extends from the lower edge of the muscle to the inframammary fold, covering the lower pole. The mesh here is an extension of the muscle. On the right, prepectoral placement: the muscle is left on the chest wall and the mesh wraps the front of the implant, with the mastectomy flap directly over it. The mesh here replaces the muscle and defines the whole pocket. A note states that in the prepectoral plane the support material is structural rather than optional.

Meshes and Matrices in Breast Reconstruction: What They Do and What the Evidence Says

"Mesh" is a family, not a product. Subpectorally the question is whether to use one; prepectorally it is which one, configured how.
