Abstract

breast reconstruction Capsular contracture capsulectomy Case Report complications early-onset
Capsular contracture (CC) is a local complication caused by an inflammatory reaction that leads to fibrosis. CC commonly occurs after one year of surgery. Hence, there has been no previously reported early onset of CC. Therefore, we report two unusual cases of early onset of post-breast reconstruction capsular contracture.
