Six studies reporting both acellular dermis and submuscular outcomes were used to estimate relative risks.

Methods: Twenty-eight consecutive tissue expander-implant reconstructions were performed by the senior author using human acellular dermis.

Objectives: The authors assess postoperative functional and cosmetic outcomes of acellular dermis-assisted breast reconstruction with crescentric tissue expansion.

Methods: This study is a single-institution, retrospective review of 40 consecutive patients who underwent acellular dermis-assisted breast reconstruction with crescentric tissue expansion.

Conclusions: The outcomes and complication rates of PHADM tissue expander breast reconstruction are comparable to those reported with freeze-dried human acellular dermis.
