- Breast Implants and RadiationSeminars in Plastic Surgery 2019; 33: 240-246DOI: 10.1055/s-0039-1696963One of the most influential factors in the success of breast reconstruction is whether or not radiation therapy has or will be performed. While traditional teaching is that all breasts treated with radiation therapy must be reconstructed with an autologous component, many reconstructive surgeons perform implant-based breast reconstruction without an autologous component and h

- Use of New Technologies in Implant-Based Breast ReconstructionSeminars in Plastic Surgery 2019; 33: 258-263DOI: 10.1055/s-0039-1696987Outcomes after mastectomy and prosthetic-based breast reconstruction have improved immensely since the development of the first tissue expander and breast implant in the 1960s. One major factor contributing to our improved outcomes over the past two decades is the increasing availability and improvement of perfusion assessment technology. Instrumental methods now exist which
- The Evolution of Breast ImplantsSeminars in Plastic Surgery 2019; 33: 217-223DOI: 10.1055/s-0039-1696985Breast augmentation remains one of the most commonly performed aesthetic procedures in the United States and worldwide. Throughout the last few decades, the implants used for this procedure have undergone significant advancements, which has allowed surgeons to provide safer and more aesthetically pleasing outcomes. This article discusses the history of breast implants since t
- Prepectoral Breast ReconstructionSeminars in Plastic Surgery 2019; 33: 236-239DOI: 10.1055/s-0039-1696966Prepectoral breast reconstruction was first done in the early 1960s; however, while initial results were promising, high complication rates led surgeons to move toward submuscular implant placement. We soon came to find that submuscular implant placement was not without its own set of drawbacks. Surgeons have since revisited the efficacy of prepectoral breast reconstruction i
- Latest Trends in Subpectoral Breast ReconstructionSeminars in Plastic Surgery 2019; 33: 224-228DOI: 10.1055/s-0039-1696964There has been a shift in recent years toward a growing popularity of implant-based breast reconstruction, especially in the setting of increased frequency of concurrent contralateral prophylactic mastectomy. Advancements in implant safety and technology have also allowed for an expanding implant reconstruction practice across the country. The traditional approach is immediat
- Implant Reconstruction in Nipple Sparing MastectomySeminars in Plastic Surgery 2019; 33: 247-257DOI: 10.1055/s-0039-1696988Nipple sparing mastectomy has been popularized in the modern era of breast cancer treatment due to its touted advantages with regard to resultant body image and reconstructive outcome. Implant-based techniques remain the most prevalent means of breast reconstruction. Special considerations regarding patient selection and technique are reviewed for implant reconstruction in th
- Evidence for the Use of Acellular Dermal Matrix in Implant-Based Breast ReconstructionSeminars in Plastic Surgery 2019; 33: 229-235DOI: 10.1055/s-0039-1696986Acellular dermal matrices (ADMs) are tissue grafts that have been specially processed to remove all cellular components. These machined biological scaffolds have become popular in a variety of surgical settings due to their rapid incorporation into living tissue. As ADMs are highly malleable and cause minimal inflammation, they have come to serve as a useful tool in implant-b
- Update in Direct-to-Implant Breast ReconstructionSeminars in Plastic Surgery 2019; 33: 264-269DOI: 10.1055/s-0039-1697028Implant-based reconstruction (IBR) remains the most commonly utilized breast reconstruction option for post-mastectomy patients. IBR can be approached as either a one-stage reconstruction or a two-stage reconstruction. Facilitated by improvements in surgical technology and advanced techniques, one-stage reconstruction, also known as direct-to-implant (DTI) reconstruction, inv
- Finding Consensus After Two Decades of Breast Implant-Associated Anaplastic Large Cell LymphomaSeminars in Plastic Surgery 2019; 33: 270-278DOI: 10.1055/s-0039-1696998Breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) is an emerging and indolent, but potentially fatal cancer of the immune system that can develop around textured-surface breast implants. The World Health Organization first recognized BIA-ALCL as a unique clinical entity in 2016. To date, over 600 confirmed cases have been reported worldwide. BIA-ALCL most co

- Quantitative localization of the entry point of the lateral ascending branch of the anterior circumflex humeral artery: a high definition CT-scan radiological studyAbstract Purpose To define the localization of the entry point of the lateral ascending branch of the anterior circumflex humeral artery (LACHA) for better surgical management and prevention of injury to this important vessel. The hypothesis is that the insertion point of the artery will be constant in subjects. Methods

The genetic modifications do not give rise to safety concerns. The food enzyme is free from viable cells of the production organism and recombinant DNA. The glucan 1,4‐α‐glucosidase is intended to be used in distilled alcohol production. Since residual amounts of total organic solids are removed
- Safety evaluation of the food enzyme 4‐phytase from a genetically modified Trichoderma reesei (strain DP‐Nzt55)Abstract The food enzyme Myo‐inositol‐hexakisphosphate 4‐phosphohydrolase (4‐phytase, EC 3.1.3.26) is produced with a genetically modified Trichoderma reesei DP‐Nzt55 by Danisco US Inc. The production strain contains a known antimicrobial resistance gene. However, based on the absence of viable cells and recombinant DNA of the production strain in the food enzyme, this is not considered to be a risk. The 4‐phytase is intended to be used in disti
- Risk assessment of the entry of Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii on maize seed imported by the EU from the USAAbstract Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a risk assessment of the entry of Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii on maize seed imported by the EU from the USA. This pest is a Gram‐negative bacterium which causes Stewart's vascular wilt and leaf blight of maize (including sweet corn), a disease responsible for serious crop losses throughout the world.

- The Middle/Later Stone Age transition and cultural dynamics of late Pleistocene East AfricaAbstract The Middle to Later Stone Age (MSA/LSA) transition is a prominent feature of the African archeological record that began in some places ~30,000–60,000 years ago, historically associated with the origin and/or dispersal of “modern” humans. Unlike the analogous Middle to Upper Paleolithic transition in Eurasia and associated Neanderthal extinction, the African MSA/LSA record remains poorly documented, with its potential role in explaining
