Abstract
Introduction: Post-operative infection in patients undergoing breast implant surgery may lead to explantation. ABS standards are set at <5% at 3 months however the National Mastectomy and Breast Reconstruction audit showed that 15-18% of women undergoing immediate reconstruction experience serious complications. In 2018 a survey based on Allergan's 14-point plan to minimise complications related to implant based surgery was disseminated amongst the Kent, Surrey and Sussex (KSS) deanery. This showed that there was regional variation in surgical practice highlighting the importance of rolling this out nationally.
