In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The researchers are doing this study to find out whether Stimulan Rapid Cure works to reduce the risk of infections in people getting tissue expanders placed during mastectomy. The researchers will also study whether Stimulan Rapid Cure affects the risk of seroma, a possible complication of surgery that involves fluid buildup under the skin.
