Clinical Trial: EXpander-based Versus Direct to Implant PRE-pectoral Breast Reconstruction: a Comparative Analysis of Surgical Outcomes

U.S., May 19 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07593651) titled 'EXpander-based Versus Direct to Implant PRE-pectoral Breast Reconstruction: a Comparative Analysis of Surgical Outcomes' on May 11.

Brief Summary: Recent advances in breast surgery, together with the increasing adoption of conservative surgical approaches, have renewed interest in pre-pectoral implant-based breast reconstruction. Within this reconstructive paradigm, surgeons may employ two distinct strategies:

(i) immediate reconstruction using a direct-to-implant approach (DTI), or (ii) a two-stage reconstruction consisting of tissue expander placement followed by definitive implant insertion (TE-I).

Each approach is associated wi...
