DOI: 10.1007/s00266-019-01368-8
Abstract: IntroductionThe etiology of capsular contracture after surgical implantation of breast implants remains unclear, but an important role is seen for the immune system. Toll-like receptors are immune receptors recognizing both pathogen-associated molecular patterns and damage-associated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1055/s-0042-1744409
Abstract: Although capsular contracture represents one of the most important complications after breast augmentation, local inflammation and fibrosis can lead, in very rare cases, to capsular calcification, an often-forgotten radiological sign of capsular contracture. In this… read more here.

Thy1 (CD90) Expression Is Elevated in Radiation-Induced Periprosthetic Capsular Contracture: Implication for Novel Therapeutics
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery"
DOI: 10.1097/prs.0000000000003542
Abstract: Background: Capsular contracture is a devastating complication of postmastectomy implant-based breast reconstruction. Unfortunately, capsular contracture rates are drastically increased by targeted radiotherapy, a standard postmastectomy treatment. Thy1 (also called CD90) is important in myofibroblast differentiation… read more here.
