Mechanical complication of breast prosthesis and implant - what does this mean
Mechanical complications of breast prosthesis and implants can occur due to incorrect placement of the implant, rupture of the implant, or erosion of the implant into surrounding tissue. these complications can lead to pain, infection, or displacement of the implant.
What happens during the disease - mechanical complication of breast prosthesis and implant
The pathogenesis of mechanical complications of breast prosthesis and implant is multifactorial and is likely due to a combination of poor implant selection, improper placement, and inadequate follow-up care. poor implant selection can lead to a mismatch between the implant and the patient’s body, resulting in mechanical stress on the implant and surrounding tissue. improper placement of the implant can cause mechanical complications such as capsular contracture, implant malposition, and implant displacement. inadequate follow-up care can lead to undetected mechanical complications, which can worsen over time.
Mechanical complication of breast prosthesis and implant - Prevention
To prevent mechanical complications of breast prosthesis and implant, patients should receive regular follow-up care and have their implants checked for signs of leakage or infection. additionally, patients should avoid activities that may cause trauma to the implant such as contact sports or heavy lifting. if any signs of mechanical complication occur, the patient should seek medical attention immediately.
