Long-Term Ultrasonographic and Histologic Changes in Acellular Dermal Matrix in Implant-Based Breast Reconstructions

Investigators evaluated the US results of 144 patients who underwent implant-based breast reconstructions with acellular dermal matrix (ADM) coverings. The US results obtained within 18 months of surgery and those obtained 5 years postoperatively were analyzed to determine the change in the ADM thickness.
