Biological and synthetic mesh assisted breast reconstruction procedures: Joint guidelines from the ABS & BAPRAS

The ABS and BAPRAS have collaborated to produce comprehensive guidance for the use of acellular dermal matrixes (ADM), biological meshes and synthetic meshes to assist breast reconstruction. The guidance is a consensus document based on the best available evidence for the use of these products. There is a useful section on patient consent as well as information to aid patient selection and maximise favourable outcomes. Importantly, the authors have also included a list of data items to collect so individual breast units can audit their own practice.
