A Direct Comparison of Porcine (Strattice™) and Bovine (Surgimend™) Acellular Dermal Matrices in Implant-Based Immediate Breast Reconstruction

Acellular dermal matrix (ADM) assisted implant-based breast reconstruction (IBBR) has grown in popularity over traditional submuscular techniques. Numerous human, bovine or porcine derived ADMs are available with the type used varying considerably worldwide. Yet, comparative evidence for the efficacy of different ADMs particularly xenogenic is limited. This study directly compares early outcomes of porcine (StratticeTM) and bovine (SurgimendTM) ADMs in IBBR.
