First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study follows 135 women who have had breast reconstruction after mastectomy using a special dissolvable mesh called TIGR® Matrix. The goal is to see how the mesh affects their quality of life over three years. Participants will fill out a questionnaire about their symptoms and daily activities. The study is observational, meaning it just watches what happens without changing treatment.
