Abstract

attempt to determine the BIA-ALCL incidence risk (IR), however, the described methods raise major concerns. The authors’ first aim is to provide a new reliable method to estimate the Breast Implanted Population (BIP). To do so, they use an indirect method based on four variables: number of Breast Implants (BI) sold/ year; purpose (aesthetic/reconstructive); number of implanted patients stratified by purpose; time to revision.
