Is there histological evidence supporting capsulectomy in patients with breast implant illness: A case-control study

Breast implant capsules from patients with BII were histologically similar to those from asymptomatic patients. These findings provide no histological justification for routine capsulectomy in patients with BII. Further research is needed to clarify the etiology of BII and its surgical management.

Abstract

Breast implant capsules from patients with BII were histologically similar to those from asymptomatic patients. These findings provide no histological justification for routine capsulectomy in patients with BII. Further research is needed to clarify the etiology of BII and its surgical management.
