Vitamin E is known to inhibit the inflammatory phase of wound healing and to decrease wound tensile strength. For these reasons, vitamin E has been suggested for the prevention of breast implant capsule contracture. Experiments in rabbits demonstrated a reduction in capsule contracture that was significant statistically, but the improvement was minor, suggesting that vitamin E prophylaxis would probably not have a major impact on the clinical problem of capsule contracture.
众所周知,维生素E可抑制伤口愈合的炎症阶段,并降低伤口的抗张强度。基于这些原因,有人建议使用维生素E来预防乳房植入物包膜挛缩。在兔子身上进行的实验表明,包膜挛缩有统计学上的显著减少,但改善程度较小,这表明维生素E预防措施可能不会对包膜挛缩的临床问题产生重大影响。
