    Silicone breast implants are commonly used materials in plastic surgery for breast augmentation and reconstruction and the most severe complication of silicone implants are capsule contraction which occurs in 40% of patients. The aim of our study is to evaluate how the amniotic membrane alters the capsule formation effects of silicone 24 wistar rats were used in the study. We placed a bare silicone block into the left side (Subgroup A) and single layer amniotic membrane coated silicone block into the right side (Subgroup B) of the rats back. The rats were then separated into three groups and in group 1 rats were euthanized after 3 weeks, in group 2 after 12 weeks and in group 3 after 24 weeks. Then capsule thickness, fibroblast and lymphocyte cell counts were evaluated for each sample. In Group 2 and group 3, the capsule thickness in Subgroup B was detected to be statistically significantly lower than that in Subgroup A. In Group 1, 2, and 3, the lymphocyte count in the capsule tissue taken from Subgroup B was lower than Subgroup A but the difference was not statistically significant. In Group 2 and 3, the fibrocyte count detected in the capsule tissue in Subgroup B was found to be statistically significantly lower than Subgroup A. the amniotic membrane was demonstrated to reduce capsule thickness by the antifibrinolytic effect in our study.
