Presentation: 'Doc, are my Capsules Infected?'  Pathogenic Contamination in 400 Total En Bloc Capsulectomies

​

We will plan to review our data from 400 cases in our initial experience with total en bloc capsulectomy and implant removals and categorize the pathogenic organisms, bacterial and fungal, colonizing the capsulectomy specimens. We will also be able to stratify data between breast reconstruction and aesthetic patients cohorts.
