Abstract
Authors comment on the paper “Meta-analysis of the oncological safety of autologous fat grafting after breast cancer on basic science and clinical studies” written by Kai Wang et al in Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. Although the authors present interesting results on the safety of autologous fat graft after breast cancer and breast reconstruction, we express some considerations about the analyzed manuscript and about the safety of this procedure in specific cohort of patients having particular cancer characteristics.
