Abstract
BARBIERI-GREZZI, Lucía; HARTWIG-ROTA, Denisse; GIACHERO-CASTANO, Virginia and JACOBO-BASTRERI, Oscar. Abdominal contour surgery in men. Technical details and case report. Cir. plást. iberolatinoam. [online]. 2018, vol.44, n.1, pp.59-63. Epub Feb 08, 2021. ISSN 1989-2055. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/s0376-78922018000100011.
The raise in abdominal contour surgery performed on men is due to an increase in aesthetic exigence in male patients and also because of a growth in the number of patients that ask for body contour reshaping after undergoing bariatric surgery.
In spite of the fact that surgical techniques options are basically the same as the ones used on women, we must take into account the basic differences between genders in order to achieve a better result. There are few publications in the international bibliography describing technical details regarding gender differences, and they usually refer to the theme with a general approach.
The main goal of our article is to briefly analyze the different surgical options according to patient needs and to present a case report.
