Abdominoplasty has been done with standard and new surgical methods in the last years, with great changes in results as in morbidity. The block resection techniques provide more natural results with less morbidity and faster execution time, joining the goals from the standard and new abdominoplasty. Our purpose was to show the efficiency and results of block resection abdominoplasty technique. A total of 1170 patients who underwent abdominoplasty either alone or combined with additional surgery between January 1992 and December 2009, were included. A retrospective study was conducted. Combined surgeries included breast reduction, mastopexy, facelift, breast implants, blepharoplasty, rhinoplasty, lipoplasty, vascular surgery, hysterectomie and other gynaecologic surgeries, and ventral hernia. From the total 1170 patients, 632 underwent abdominoplasty alone and 538 were in the abdominoplasty combined group. Complication rate was between 0,09 y 4,87%, according to each complication founded. This review showed the technique's efficiency and the natural results achieved even in combined procedures. Patients who underwent abdominoplasty with previous block resection techniques were satisfied with their outcomes and the complication rate was in acceptable levels. So, abdominoplasty with previous block resection is a very safe, efficient and fast procedure who brings a very pleasant and natural abdominal shape.
