Abstract
NOE, Jorge G; TUERO, Alejandro A and SORIA, José H. Total buttocks remodeling in patients with massive injection of unknown substances. Cir. plást. iberolatinoam. [online]. 2023, vol.49, n.2, pp.195-200. Epub Sep 25, 2023. ISSN 1989-2055. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/s0376-78922023000200013.
Background and objective.
We present 2 clinical cases of surgical removal of foreign materials from the buttocks and the following reconstructive procedures in patients with massive injections of foreign materials.
Methods.
We describe the reconstructive procedure after the removal of the foreign material, with a dermal fat flap with a wide lateral base that allows to move the flap towards the center of the buttocks and provide tissue in the upper region of the lateral thigh, effectively reshaping the new gluteus.
Results.
The final contour of the buttocks and the placement of the scars were accepted with great satisfaction by both patients. The postoperative was long and slow due to prolonged scarring. One case required revision.
Conclusions.
We consider that the obtained results are encouraging and the method could make for an interesting alternative to treat this pathology, which is frequent and of difficult solution.
