Guest guest Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 Wow, Dede. Thanks for sharing these links. Did you see any of these others? Dr. A. s http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZXaVnBwj_og & NR=1 The saline implant on her right side had clearly ruptured giving her swelling and discomfort. The surgeon starts by doing a removal of the LEFT implant He removes lots of the `greeny, yellowy, fluid'..the infected fluid, from the left capsule, but doesn't remove the capsule. 1:40-1:44 he says he's using suction while removing this as much as possible of the green fluid and being very careful to minimize `wound contamination'. 1:54 the implant that gave her no symptoms was obviously full of greenish-yellow fluid. More is visible at 4:59. What does he say at 2:22? It sounds like, `Here's my debozics going in'…'to lie around the implant'. Later he explains that's an antibiotic. ( I wonder what the correct spelling is?) This implant exchange is done 10 years after the original. Recently they had gone hard and developed capsules. It sounds like Dr. s leaves the capsule in as extra padding…to reduce the risk of rippling and reduce the `outline' of the implant. (Sounds like the motivation is strictly the visual results…Am I hearing this right?) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PEs7XVQS1o4 & feature=related 2:06 This implant had ruptured. 2:16 he says he `washes' out the rest of the silicone with saline (Imagine how effective that is!!??) Here Dr. s replaces implants after 20 years… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wf-x5XDiBFk & feature=related Dr. s' website states the thicker capsules occur 4-6% of the first pair of implants. *** Dr. on Montel's show *** Dr. Teitelbaum http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PwVPDFHb-S0 & feature=related " …capsular contracture was rampant in the 80s and early 90s " He says in order to reduce the odds of constracture on the second implant he removes all of the capsule. 4:23 He says capsular contracture, " still occurs 15-20% of the time " with the second implants if the first implants have had capsular constracture. I'm mentioning the repeat contracture because in my mind, that shows how hyper-vigilant in attack mode the body has become. I hope these clips help someone. I see that it is very important for the patient to be clear about what they want the surgeon to do. Get it in writing. Get it signed. There's clearly a wide variety of work going on out there. M.

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 No, I sure havent, but will look at them...... You can clearly see how horrific this is for people. The percentages of risks to one that has had breast cancer are much higher than for one who hasnt. I believe it is somewhere around 30 percent chance of problems, ( that they tell about ) Re-Operation multiple times is much higher in a cancer patient. You know, if there is any cancer residual in there, that is undetectible by the current methods of detection, then all that trauma and surgeries is highly likely to stir up that cancer again. The two awesome ladies that passed last year were cancer survivors, then had implants, one had massive rupture during puting them in, the other had them, im not sure how long, and both had recurrent cancer and they fought their bums off trying to stay alive, but finally they took off for heaven... Its awesome there, I have been, and remember it very vividly. Anyway, I am happy they are well again and enjoying life in heaven. Thank you Theresa, everybody needs to watch these as part of their implant education and consider they will be having this done multiple times during the lifetime of living with implants !

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 Dede, I wanted to thank you again, and to let you know that I was able to post some of this information to the breastcancer2 group. I'm not a member of other forums, but if some of the SS members are, feel free to rework it and repost it anywhere you think would help get the information to the needy...TM Many women who chose implants will also need replacement or removal at some point in the future. Monthly self-checks should watch for calcification lumps and/or the thickening of the capsule. A normal capsule would be about the thickness of typing paper and flexible like the exterior of a balloon. Thickening would indicate the body is going into low-grade inflammation mode. This clip shows an implant replacement surgery with Dr. M. J. Brown. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pojYrag8fNw & feature=related It was good Dr. Brown took a culture and was checking for `implant infection'. It was taken to the lab and found to have atypical cells in the fluid. 5:13 He describes the removal of the excessive scar tissue (thick capsule) as , " ..a rather tedious procedure " as he has to be meticulous about separating the capsule from the muscle and the bone. 5:59 says that in his opinion, the capsule `pocket would not have gone away' if he had only removed the implant, so for `the patient's safety' 8:10 Capsular constricture… " This patient has had some type of inflammatory process surrounding this implant. " …in some areas almost a centimeter thick. Here, in 2010, Dr. s, the surgical director, at Aurora-Clinics.co.UK , explains clearly what a capsule is…the body walling off a foreign object. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=glRxyCnsvLc & feature=related " …In most people this lining stays very soft and subtle… and you wouldn't even know it's there…In other people it becomes thicker and firmer…About 5% get capsules that are bad enough to cause them concern…and can progress to cause pain and distortion " . He helps women understand the difference between having a capsulotmy and a capsulectomy. Here's a further explanation (2009) of why some women have almost an over excessive scarring response around the implant perhaps from a low grade infection from skin bacteria… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6WLYCXTJsaQ & feature=related Dr. A. s http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZXaVnBwj_og & NR=1 The saline implant on her RIGHT side had clearly ruptured giving her swelling and discomfort.

I think the take-away message is that there is a wide variety of work going on out there. Women need to do their homework and continue self-checks.
