Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The study investigates the safety and performance of Silimed® silicone gel breast implants with a textured surface and Silimed® silicone gel breast implants with polyurethane coated surface. Female patients who underwent primary or secondary breast augmentation using Silimed® breast implants will be followed-up through 10 years. The safety of each type of Silimed® breast implant is going to be assessed by estimating the known and unexpected short- and long-term risk / adverse event rates. The performance of each type of Silimed® breast implant is going to be assesses by estimating the satisfaction and quality of life after implantation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Expected Adverse Events [Annually through the 10 years length of the study.]

    Estimate the known short-term and long-term risk / adverse event rate for Silimed® silicone gel-filled breast implants with textured surface and Silimed® silicone gel-filled breast implants with polyurethane foam covered surface

  2. Unexpected Adverse Events [Annually through the 10 years length of the study.]

    Estimate the unknown short-term and long-term risk / adverse event rate for Silimed® silicone gel-filled breast implants with textured surface and Silimed® silicone gel-filled breast implants with polyurethane foam covered surface

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Patient's Satisfaction in Relation to Aesthetic Result [Annually through the 10 years length of the study.]

    Estimate the performance of Silimed® silicone gel-filled breast implants with textured surface and Silimed® silicone gel-filled breast implants with polyurethane foam covered surface through the satisfaction of the patient regarding the aesthetic result after breast augmentation. The assessment of patient's satisfaction will be done by means of a likert scale, where the following satisfaction options can be selected: 1 = definitely satisfied, 2 = satisfied, 3 = slightly satisfied, 4 = slightly dissatisfied and 5 = definitely unsatisfied.

  2. Patient's Satisfaction in General [Annually through the 10 years length of the study.]

    Estimate the performance of Silimed® silicone gel-filled breast implants with textured surface and Silimed® silicone gel-filled breast implants with polyurethane foam covered surface after breast augmentation by means of a questionnaire, the Breast Self-Assessment Questionnaire (BEQ-Brazil), which consist of 55 questions related to satisfaction and comfort with the overall appearance of the breasts.

  3. Evaluator's Satisfaction in Relation to Aesthetic Result [Annually through the 10 years length of the study.]

    Estimate the performance of Silimed® silicone gel-filled breast implants with textured surface and Silimed® silicone gel-filled breast implants with polyurethane foam covered surface through the satisfaction of the evaluator regarding the aesthetic result after patient's breast augmentation. The assessment of evaluator's satisfaction will be done by means of a likert scale, where the following satisfaction options can be selected: 1 = definitely satisfied, 2 = satisfied, 3 = slightly satisfied, 4 = slightly dissatisfied and 5 = definitely unsatisfied.

  4. Patient's Quality of Life [Annually through the 10 years length of the study.]

    Estimate the performance of Silimed® silicone gel-filled breast implants with textured surface and Silimed® silicone gel-filled breast implants with polyurethane foam covered surface through the quality of life of the patient after breast augmentation. The assessment of patient's quality of life will be done by means of the Rosemberg Global Self-Esteem Scale, in order to evaluate the overall self-esteem of the sample.

  • pregnancy informed or breastfeeding at the inclusion moment,

  • advanced fibrocystic disease at the time of implantation,

  • neoplasia of any type not yet treated or being treated at the time of implantation, infection in activity not yet treated or being treated at any site at the time of implantation,

  • reporting or recording of adverse reactions or intolerance to polyurethane or silicone prior to implantation,

  • immune diseases affecting active connective tissue or (eg, lupus erythematosus, discoid lupus, scleroderma, etc.) at the time of implantation,

  • signs of inflammation of the breast or implant site at the time of implantation,

  • Increased risk of immediate postoperative complications due to use of illicit drugs or medications,

  • have participated in another clinical study up to 6 months prior to the placement of the implant,
