ABSTRACT

One of the recognized complications of augmentation mammoplasty is the rupture of the breast implant, a term used to refer to any breach in the cover of the implant, which can range from a small hole to its destruction. So far the gold standard for the diagnosis of implant rupture is just removal, and there is no consensus on the ideal type of image study to use in the search for ruptured implants. Studies on this topic are mostly retrospective cases of symptomatic patients in which the rupture of the implant was confirmed by surgical removal, so there is some bias in the results. The objective of this paper is to show the strengths and weaknesses of each diagnostic category and to propose an algorithm to guide the plastic surgeon with respect to the indication of the appropriate image method to use depending on the conditions of each patient.
