NCT ID NCT07185334

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether a polyester mesh coated with fluoropolymer can reduce complications after breast reconstruction in women with breast cancer. One hundred women will receive either standard reconstruction or reconstruction with the coated mesh. The main goal is to see if the mesh lowers the chance of the implant pushing through the skin.

Active substance

polyester mesh with fluoropolymer coating

What this could lead to
