Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting

Summary

This international registry collects data on women who have breast reconstruction with implants placed in front of the chest muscle (pre-pectoral) after mastectomy for breast cancer. Researchers follow participants for surgical complications, aesthetic results, cancer outcomes, and quality of life. The goal is to understand how this approach performs in real-world practice and how it compares with other techniques.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
pre-pectoral breast reconstruction, a surgical technique that places implants in front of the chest muscle after mastectomy
What this could lead to
If the registry shows good outcomes, it could help standardize pre-pectoral reconstruction and give women clearer expectations about recovery and appearance.
What could go wrong
This is an observational registry, not a controlled experiment, so it cannot prove one technique is better than another. Results may be biased by which surgeons and patients choose each approach.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

All patients who are candidates for implant-based reconstruction should be informed about the possible participation to this clinical study. The inclusion and exclusion criteria are verified by the investigator and an informed consent is obtained from the patient. The therapeutic pattern should be followed according to institutional and national standards. Since this is a non-interventional trial, the study sites do not deviate from their own study protocol at any timepoint.

Female participants only

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted
