    Abstract Background: Acellular dermal matrices have been introduced to optimize direct-to-implant breast reconstruction. We selected a bovine pericardium noncross-linked matrix.
    Methods: The study consists in the retrospective analysis of 123 patients (141 breasts) who underwent conservative mastectomy and immediate implant-based breast reconstruction with bovine pericardium matrix Veritas
    Results: The overall rates of early and late complications, after a median follow-up of 51.84 months, were, respectively, 37.6% and 24.1%. The most noticeable early complications were flap ischemia [n = 39 (27.7%)], hematoma [n = 5 (3.6%)], marginal skin flap necrosis [n = 5 (3.6%)] and dehiscence of the surgical wound [n = 2 (1.4%)]. The most common late complications were rippling [n = 18 (12.7%)] and seroma [n = 4 (2.8%)]. The rate of clinically relevant capsular contracture was low: 12.1% (n = 17) presented grade II and only 2.1%% (n = 3) grade III. Implant substitution became necessary for five patients (3.6%). Early complications occurred more frequently in patients undergoing therapeutic mastectomy (p = 0.031). Patients undergoing preoperative radiotherapy more frequently developed late complications (p = 0.012). A clinically relevant capsular contracture (grade II-III) was found in higher average patients age (p = 0.0019). The left side developed less frequently late complications except for rippling (p = 0.002). Rippling occurred more frequently in patients who sustained a nipple skin-sparing mastectomy (p = 0.035).
    Conclusion: Our results further support the safety of Veritas

    Abstract Introduction: Ogilvie's Syndrome (OS) is a rare condition caused by parasympathetic dysfunction of large bowel characterized by acute and massive colon distension without mechanical obstruction. Rarely this disease has to be treated by the surgeon but operations may be indicated in case of medical treatment failure.
    Methods: A retrospective analysis was carried out at the Emergency Surgery DPT of St Orsola-Malpighi University Hospital Bologna Italy. From 1995 to 2002 11 patients were treated for severe OS: they were 8 males and 3 females and the mean age was 68 yrs. All these subjects had large bowel distension with caecum diameter more than 8 cm without any evidence of mechanical obstruction.
    Results: In 4 patients (36%) OS was caused by trauma or surgical procedures whereas in 7 cases (64%) was produced by other conditions. Only in 3 cases (27%) conservative treatment was successful; the remaining 8 patients were submitted to surgical therapy. 6 patients were submitted to decompressive caecostomy and in 2 cases a subtotal colectomy was done. Mortality was 36%.
    Discussion and conclusions: Surgical treatment of OS is indicated when there is a conservative treatment failure. The high mortality is related to diagnostic and therapeutic delays, advanced age and comorbidities.
