Dr. Sean Rice, Toronto Plastic Surgeon, explains En Bloc Removal of Breast Implants
The removal of breast implants are requested for various reasons by women. Simple exchange may be desired for implant rupture, capsular contracture (scarring around the breast implant), change in size, change of position of the implant (sub-glandular, sub-muscular, or subfascial), or change in type of implant (saline, silicone, or shaped). Some women also just choose to have her implants removed altogether.
En Bloc is arguably wisest and the best way to explant the breast prosthesis. This procedure involves removal of implant, all extruded material, and capsule in full as one.
