복부성형술 Abdominoplasty

Abdominoplasty, horizontal panniculectomy and TRAM/DIEP flaps can sometimes be associated to postoperative complications such as wound dehiscence, skin necrosis, seroma, hematoma, surgical site infection, and need for unplanned reoperation.…

[INTRODUCTION] Abdominoplasty carries a significant risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). Two main strategies have been described for prophylaxis: systematic administration of low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) and risk-stratified manageme…

Gut hormone modulation is central to appetite regulation following bariatric surgery, but its relevance among individuals undergoing body contouring procedures, with or without bariatric surgery, remains unclear. In this prospective study o…

Obesity is a risk factor for diabetes mellitus (DM), which is associated with impaired wound healing and increased surgical site infections (SSI) due to poor vascularity. Patients who undergo abdominoplasties or panniculectomies often have …

[BACKGROUND] Achieving optimal skin scarring after surgery is a major concern for patients and physicians worldwide. An innovative form of photobiomodulation, namely Fluorescent Light Energy (FLE), is increasingly used in clinical settings …

Umbilical laxity is a common aesthetic concern in male and female patients, yet it lacks a standardized classification system for its evaluation and treatment. This article presents a new four-grade classification system of umbilical laxity…

[BACKGROUND] Patients who have undergone abdominoplasty face limited options for microsurgical breast reconstruction, as the deep inferior epigastric perforator flap is often unavailable. This study compared lumbar artery perforator (LAP) a…

Patients with inflammatory bowel disease or cancer are often treated using stoma placement. For individuals with a stoma, pouch leakage is the primary problem faced daily. We present a case in which functional abdominoplasty helped improve …

Agranulocytosis is a severe haematological disorder with multiple aetiologies, among which drug-induced causes are clinically significant. Metamizole is a non-opioid analgesic and antipyretic agent, used for the management of severe pain an…

[BACKGROUND] Lipedema is a chronic disorder of adipose tissue that predominantly affects women and is frequently misdiagnosed as obesity or lymphedema. Traditionally associated with the lower extremities, lipedema can also involve the abdom…

BACKGROUND Elastofibroma dorsi (ED) is a rare, benign, slow-growing soft tissue pseudotumor typically located beneath the scapula. It predominantly affects older adults and shows a higher prevalence among women, usually in the infrascapular…

External insults can cause immune activation in immune cells, resulting in persistent molecular changes that can lead to innate immune memory changes in these cells. This study investigated the potential for cellular reprogramming in respon…

Tranexamic acid (TXA) has gained widespread use across surgical disciplines due to its antifibrinolytic properties and favorable safety profile, yet standardized protocols for its use in aesthetic plastic surgery remain lacking. This study …

Suzetrigine represents a novel non-opioid option for managing acute postoperative pain. Management of this pain often relies on traditional analgesics, including opioids, NSAIDs, and acetaminophen, but the use of these agents can be complic…

In case of umbilical hernia, the navel often appears convex and enlarged, which may not only be aesthetically displeasing but can also adversely impact patient health. Consequently, we propose an innovative surgical technique termed "Butter…

Rectus diastasis repair can be approached in many different ways from robotic to open. However, a large part of the transformation a plastic surgeon can offer a patient who is seeking a diastasis repair is to combine the rectus diastasis re…

[BACKGROUND] Abdominoplasty, a widely performed surgical procedure for body contouring, is often associated with significant postoperative discomfort, edema, and prolonged recovery times. Optimizing postoperative recovery remains a critical…

Suzetrigine is a novel non-opioid analgesic that selectively inhibits the Nav1.8 sodium channel, which plays a key role in peripheral pain signaling. By blocking action potential propagation in nociceptors, it effectively reduces pain witho…
