ABSTRACT

Introduction: The abdomen is a critical region and is subjected to body contour deformity after significant weight loss. Knowing the profile of patients who undergo abdominoplasty after bariatric surgery facilitates the choice of the optimal time and surgical technique to restore abdominal contour, which is associated with a minimal rate of complications. Methods: A cross-sectional, descriptive, analytical, and retrospective clinical study was performed on medical record data of 315 patients who underwent abdominal dermolipectomy following bariatric surgery from January 2013 to December 2014. Results: A total of 265 female and 50 male patients were analyzed, with an average age of 39.9 years and an average body mass index of 27.5 kg/m2 after weight loss. The average time interval between bariatric surgery and dermolipectomy was 3 years and 11 months. Anchor abdominoplasty was used in 252 patients, while suprapubic transverse abdominoplasty was performed in 63 patients. The complication rate was 17.3%, including minor complications such as hematomas, seromas, and pathological scars, in addition to one case of pulmonary embolism. Conclusion: The epidemiological profile of patients with deformity of the abdominal contour after bariatric surgery was in agreement with that reported in the current literature, except for earlier hospital discharge in the group studied.


Introdução: O abdome é considerado área crítica de deformidade do contorno corporal após perda ponderal significativa. Conhecer o perfil dos pacientes submetidos à abdominoplastia pós-cirurgia bariátrica facilita a escolha do tempo ideal e da técnica cirúrgica que visa restaurar este contorno com uma taxa mínima de complicações. Métodos: Estudo clínico, transversal, descritivo, analítico e retrospectivo com dados de 315 prontuários de pacientes submetidos à dermolipectomia abdominal pós-cirurgia bariátrica de janeiro de 2013 a dezembro de 2014. Resultados: Foram analisados 265 pacientes do gênero feminino e 50 do gênero masculino, com idade média de 39,9 anos e índice de massa corporal médio de 27,5 Kg/m2 após emagrecimento. O tempo médio de intervalo entre a cirurgia bariátrica e a dermolipectomia foi de 3 anos e 11 meses. A abdominoplastia em âncora foi utilizada em 252 pacientes e em 63 realizou-se abdominoplastia com cicatriz transversal suprapúbica. A taxa de complicações foi de 17,3%, incluindo complicações menores como hematomas, seromas e cicatrizes patológicas e um caso de embolia pulmonar. Conclusão: O perfil epidemiológico dos pacientes com deformidade de contorno abdominal pós-cirurgia bariátrica estudados assemelha-se ao apresentado na literatura atual, exceto pela alta hospitalar precoce.

ABSTRACT

Na era das cirurgias minimamente invasivas, parece controverso advogar grandes operações. Entretanto, ainda há espaço para grandes intervenções oncológicas. É relatado caso de paciente de 23 anos de idade portador de tumor desmoide em hemitórax direito, com deformidade e erosão de arcos costais, atelectasia parcial do pulmão ipsilateral, compressão e desvio contralateral do mediastino, invasão de nervos do plexo braquial, vasos subclávios e pleura apical direita. Realizada toracectomia, ressecção de tumor em mediastino, amputação do membro superior direito, escapulectomia e reconstrução da parede torácica com tela de márlex e metilmetacrilato e confecção de retalho fasciocutâneo. O paciente encontra-se em seguimento ambulatorial com suas funções diárias quase recuperadas, limitado apenas nas atividades que envolviam o membro desarticulado. Em casos selecionados devem ser consideras grandes intervenções com o objetivo de ressecção R0 (ressecção com margens cirúrgicas livres) e melhora na qualidade de vida, atentando-se sempre para a ressocialização.


In the era of minimally invasive surgery, advocating large operations seems controversial. However, there is still room for major oncologic interventions. This is report of a 23 yearold patient with desmoid tumor in the right hemithorax, deformed and eroded ribs, ipsilateral lung partial atelectasis, contralateral mediastinal compression and shift, invasion ofnerves in the brachial plexus, subclavian vessels and right apical pleura. Thoracectomy was performed with resection of the tumor in the mediastinum, right upper limb amputation, scapulectomy, and chest wall reconstruction with methylmethacrylate and marlex screen, and use of a fasciocutaneous flap. The subject is in follow up as an outpatient andhas almost recovered his daily functions, which are now limited only for activities involving the inarticulate member. Selected cases should be considered for major interventions with aiming at R0 resection (resection with free surgical margins) and improved quality of life, always bearing in mind the need for rehabilitation and socialization.
