Summary:
Stem cells derived from fat (adipose) tissue was implanted after breast cancer surgery in an attempt to improve brreast reconstruction and repair damaged tissue. Researchers believe that the stem cells will create new blood vessels to help fat tissue implanted at the same time to survive, and stem and regenerative cells from adipose (fat) tissue could improve tissue repair and healing.
Commentary: Hopefully this trial will lead to improved treatments and outcomes for a diverse population of breast cancer patients.
