The Detection of Bacteria and Matrix Proteins on Clinically Benign and Pathologic Implants
2019
Background:
Bacterial contamination of breast implants causes infection, can lead to capsular contracture, and is implicated in breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma. Bacteria, however, also colonize clinically benign breast implants and little is known about the biologic signals that trigger the switch from a benign to pathologic state.
