[Analysis and treatment of the complications post polyacrylamide hydrogel injection for augmentation mammaplasty].
OBJECTIVE
To inquire into the reason why the postoperative complications of augmentation mammaplasty by injecting polyacrylamide hydrogel took place and to find the best method to deal with the complications.


METHODS
12 patients who accepted polyacrylamide hydrogel injection for augmentation mammaplasty were included in this study. Operations were performed to remove the polyacrylamide hydrogel.


RESULTS
All patients didn't argue with the result, but the outside shape of mamma was not good post-operation.


CONCLUSIONS
So-called standard injection method can't avoid the postoperative complications. The considerable therapy for the complications of polyacrylamide hydrogel was removing it by operation.
