Abstract

Sponge implants were used for aesthetic and reconstructive breast surgery 60 years ago. Major capsular contracture and its uncontrolled clinical symptoms were seen in nearly all cases. With the development of silicone gel implants these sponges were no longer used. This case report presents a patient who had aesthetic breast augmentation with polyethylene (Polystan) sponge implants. One of the implants lasted for 40 years, and the other implant was rejected because of a localized infection seven years after surgery, which was replaced with a silicone gel implant that lasted for 34 years

Özet

Sünger meme protezleri estetik ve rekonstrüktif meme cerrahisinde 60 yıl önce kullanılmışlardır. Major kapsüler kontraktür ve ona ait önlenemeyen klinik semptomlar hemen hemen bütün olgularda gö- rülmüştür. Silikon jel protezlerin ortaya çıkması ile sünger protezler kullanımdan kalkmışlardır. Bu yazıda polyethylene (Polystan) sünger protezleri ile estetik meme büyütme ameliyatı olan bir hasta sunulmaktadır. Protezlerden bir tanesi 40 yıl süre ile kullanılmıştır. Diğer protez ameliyattan yedi yıl sonra lokal enfeksiyon nedeniyle rejeksiyona uğramış ve sonrasında 34 yıl boyunca kullanılacak olan silikon jel protez ile değiştirilmiştir.
