The authors aim to describe surgical patterns and outcomes of an elderly population diagnosed with EBC treated in a BC-dedicated reference center. Methods Retrospective study for all EBC patients ≥70 years old submitted to breast surgery from 2018 to 2021. Patients were included if submitted to the G8 screening tool. Data on standard demographics, surgery performed, and outcomes were collected. Results Overall, 192 patients were included. Frail patients were significantly older ( p <0.01), had worse Charlson Comorbidity Index ( p <0.01) and ASA ( p <0.01) scores and more comorbidities ( p =0.09). In total, 199 breasts were operated; 173 breast conservative surgeries (BCS) and 26 mastectomies. In the frail population, oncoplastic surgery after BCS was more frequently mammoplasty; no reconstruction was reported after mastectomy. In the fit group, more diversity was seen in oncoplastic procedures; 13 breasts underwent direct-to-implant breast reconstruction (BR) after mastectomy. Frail patients were less likely to be offered BR ( p <0.01). There was no association between frailty and postoperative complications, in-hospital length of stay, readmission, or reintervention. Conclusions Our results suggest that G8 frail patients are less likely to be offered BR. Even if there were no significant differences in surgical adverse outcomes between groups, this could have been masked by a higher proportion of BR among fit patients. G8 screening can be a useful instrument to support the surgeon’s decision to whether or not to consider BR in elderly breast cancer patients.

Nonetheless, adverse events such as late inflammatory reactions (LIRs) are reported for every type of filler. As of the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, LIRs have been reported after SARS-CoV infection or vaccination. In the past, we reviewed these adverse events; however, since then, we faced a wave with the Omicron, and the vaccination programs continued with booster vaccines. We therefore aimed to perform an up-to-date review of the literature on LIRs after COVID-19 infection and vaccination with additional learned lessons from this pandemic. Material and methods We performed a systematic review on soft tissue filler-related LIRs after SARS-CoV-2 infection or vaccination in line with the PRISMA guidelines. Eligible studies were searched in the database PubMed from 1 August 2021 until 1 June 2023. Data on patient characteristics, filler characteristics, clinical findings, and treatment options were retrieved. Results A total of 14 papers with in total 52 patients were reported, of which 16 had adverse events after a SARS-CoV-2 infection and 36 after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. In most cases, it concerned females who had their (mostly temporary) fillers for cosmetic purposes. Symptoms were reported in a matter of hours up to weeks after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination (22 Pfizer, 7 Moderna, 3 AstraZeneca, 3 Sputnik V, and one after Siophram), mostly after the first or second dose but sporadically after a third dose. Most patients were treated in a conservative manner. Discussion LIRs continue to be reported after SARS-CoV-2 infection and vaccination and are currently also reported for non-mRNA vaccines, for non-temporary fillers, and also after a third dose of the vaccine. Although there are more and more papers on this matter, they remain minor and self-limiting. We therefore still advise patients with soft tissue fillers to remain participated in vaccination programs when needed. Level of evidence: Not gradable.","PeriodicalId":12054,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Plastic Surgery","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135308132","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
