Clinical Value of Tri-Plane Technique in Breast Prosthesis Reconstruction After Breast Cancer Surgery
[Objective]To explore the clinical value of the tri-plane technique in breast recon-struction after radical surgery for breast cancer.[Methods]Clinical data of 46 patients who un-derwent breast prosthesis reconstruction after radical surgery for breast cancer in the Breast Center of Yunnan Cancer Hospital from October 2019 to October 2022 were retrospectively analyzed,in-cluding 24 cases with tri-plane breast prosthesis implantation and 22 cases with bi-plane breast prosthesis implantation.[Results]The average postoperative extubation time for patients was(8.2± 1.5)d in the bi-plane group and(10.3±2.4)d in the tri-plane group(t=3.366,P=0.002).The subjective satisfaction of breast reconstruction in the tri-plane group were better than that in the bi-plane group(79.19%vs 50.00%,x2=3.564,P=0.04).During the one-year postoperative follow-up period,no case was found with local recurrence,distant metastasis and death from breast can-cer.[Conclusion]Compared to traditional bi-plane technique,the tri-plane technique for breast prosthesis reconstruction has better patient satisfaction and objective appearance,with less com-plication and medical cost,which is worthy of clinical promotion and application.
