Abstract

ANORVE-BORQUEZ, I.R.. Lipotransference to legs with or without subcutaneous fasciotomy of the posterior tibial aponeurosis. Cir. plást. iberolatinoam. [online]. 2014, vol.40, n.1, pp.3-12. ISSN 1989-2055.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S0376-78922014000100002.

Lipotransference to thighs and legs is a rarely used procedure as a complement to lipoesculpture, this being a very important area to give more harmony and beauty to the body counturing. We analyze 139 lipotransference procedures to thighs and legs, this last one with or without subcutaneous fasciotomy of the posterior tibial aponeurosis or deep fascia of the leg. We explain our technique and the amount of fat necessary in every zone to diminishing the complications rate and side effects that in legs, when fasciotomy is not performed, can be confused with other pathologies such as compartment syndrome, or deep vein thrombosis.

Keywords : Body countering; Liposuction; Lipotransference; Lipofilling; Fasciotomy.
