Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This prospective, multicenter, open-label study will assess the clinical outcomes of the LTM product in three planned analyses. The primary objective of this study is to prospectively assess the clinical outcomes associated with the use of LTM in two-stage (expander then permanent implant) immediate post-mastectomy breast reconstruction.

- description
- Evaluation of 3 histology parameters, fibroblast infiltration, immune cell response \& revascularization, expressed as frequency distributions. Samples evaluated for presence of fibroblasts (cellularity), neovascularization \& immune cell response using 4 pt scale. Fibroblast Infiltration: 1=None,2=Few,sparse,3=Moderate,4=Dense. Revascularization:1=None,2=Few randomly dispersed capillaries,3=Moderate; mostly homogenous distribution of new vessels,4=Significant,uniformly distributed vessels; both capillaries and arterioles. Immune Cell response: 1= None,2=Few,normal healing response,3=Moderate,4=Significant;above expected presence for healing. 4 high power(HP)fields reviewed \& if uniform in appearance/cellular distribution, 4 considered representative of sample as a whole. If non-uniform distribution observed, 3 HP fields of "sparse or light" distribution \& 3 HP fields of dense distribution counted \& results averaged. Tissue sample then assessed for overall acellularity \& expressed as %.
