MSH: Implants used to reconstruct and/or cosmetically enhance the female breast. They have an outer shell or envelope of silicone elastomer and are filled with either saline or silicone gel. The outer shell may be either smooth or textured.,NCI: A silicone gel-filled or saline-filled sac placed under the chest muscle to restore breast shape.,UMD: Implantable devices designed for breast reconstruction and/or augmentation. These implants typically consist of an outer shell (e.g., silicone elastomer) that may include single or double (i.e., one shell inside the outer shell) lumen, a liquid or gel filler, and a patch to seal the shell once filled. The shell may be prefilled or filled during the surgery; some implants allow filler volume adjustment after implantation. Breast implants are available in a variety of surfaces, shapes, volumes, and shell thicknesses; they are usually filled with liquid (typically saline) and gel (typically silicone gel).
