  • Title: Free autogenous transplants in preformed pseudosheath silicone rubber pockets.
    Author: Thomson HG, Vanderby MB.
    Journal: Plast Reconstr Surg; 1976 Dec; 58(6):698-702. PubMed ID: 792920.
    Abstract:
    This investigation suggests that free autogenous grafts, when placed in preformed silicone rubber pseudosheath pockets, will survive as well, if not better, than in delayed or immediate surgical pockets. This supports the clinical assumption that silicone rubber implants can be used and exchanged periodically for larger sizes. At a final exchange, free autogenous tissue could be replaced within the pseudosheath pocket.
