Abstract (EN): The main goal of the present work was to study the mechanical behavior and its influences in ruptured PIP Breast Implants. From the data acquired by the tensile testing equipment applied force and consequent deformation - it is possible to compare the behavior of all different regions of the PIP breast implants and study the influence of several factors (type of shell rupture, discoloration, duration of implantation, etc).
