ABSTRACT
Resumen Antecedentes: La cirugía de aumento mamario con lipoinjerto se ha incrementado debido a que evita usar prótesis. Es utilizado para aumentos moderados con fines estéticos, no retarda el diagnóstico de cáncer ni aumenta el riesgo de sufrirlo. Objetivo: Revisar nuestra experiencia en aumento mamario estético con lipoinjerto, en una sesión y con seguimiento superior a un año. Materiales y Método: Se diseñó una cohorte prospectiva de mujeres. Se excluyeron aquellas con alteraciones congénitas, mesenquimopatías y fumadoras. La lipoinyección se efectuó con principios de Coleman. Para la medición del volumen mamario preoperatorio se utilizó la aplicación Breast-V. Volumen de aumento, tasa de retención y tasa de aumento fueron calculados. Resultados: 73 pacientes fueron lipoinjertadas, 35 superaron seguimiento a un año. Volumen mamario inicial fue 219,5 ± 44,1 cc. Volumen de aumento fue 99,9 ± 29,8 cc, tasa de retención grasa injertada 41,4%, tasa de aumento del volumen mamario 48,1%. 41 pacientes presentaron imágenes posoperatorias: quistes 15 pacientes (36,6%); necrosis grasa 2 pacientes (4,9%); macrocalcificaciones 8 pacientes (19,5%); microcalcificaciones 1 paciente (2,5%), cuya biopsia fue negativa para malignidad. Discusión: El lipoinjerto mamario es un procedimiento seguro, con resultados adecuados cuando se realiza en una sesión y por el mismo cirujano, siguiendo principios de Coleman. El aumento porcentual es el índice más significativo para evaluar su éxito. Conclusiones: Lipoinyección mamaria en una sesión es una técnica segura que logra aumento moderado del volumen mamario. Es útil para aumentos moderados o corrección de asimetrías leves. No hay evidencia de que interfiera con el diagnóstico precoz del cáncer de mama.
Background: Lipograft breast augmentation has increased due to avoidance of prosthetics. It is used for moderate increases for aesthetic purposes, it does not delay the diagnosis of cancer or increase the risk of suffering it. Aim: To review our experience in cosmetic breast augmentation with lipograft, in one session and with a follow-up of more than one year. Materials and Method: A prospective cohort of women was designed. Those with congenital alterations, mesenchymopathies and smokers were excluded. Lipoinjection was carried out with Coleman's principies. The Breast-V application was used to measure preoperative breast volume. Volume of increase, retention rate and rate of increase were calculated. Results: 73 patients were lipografted, 35 had a one-year follow-up. Initial breast volume was 219.5 ± 44.1 cc. Volume increase was 99.9 ± 29.8 cc, grafted fat retention rate 41.4%, breast volume increase rate 48.1%. 41 patients presented postoperative images: cysts 15 patients (36.6%); fat necrosis 2 patients (4.9%); macrocalcifiations 8 patients (19.5%); microcalcifiations 1 patient (2.5%), whose biopsy was negative for malignancy. Discussion: The mammary lipograft is a safe procedure, with adequate results when performed in one session and by the same surgeon, following Coleman principles. The percentage increase is the most significant index to evalúate your success. Conclusions: Breast lipoinjection in one session is a safe technique that achieves a moderate increase in breast volume. It is useful for moderate magnification or correction of slight asymmetries. There is no evidence that it interferes with the early diagnosis of breast cancer.

Resumen Introducción: La incorporación de tecnologías en la práctica quirúrgica, ha cambiado la forma de enfrentar el proceso quirúrgico. Objetivo: Describir la experiencia de los últimos 9 años, en cirugía ortognática, con la incorporación de la cefalometría 3D. Materiales y Método: Se realizó una revisión retrospectiva de pacientes operados de cirugía ortognática durante el período enero de 2011 a agosto de 2018. Se registraron datos demográficos, quirúrgicos, tipo de planificación quirúrgica, complicaciones y resultados a largo plazo. Resultados: 21 pacientes requirieron cirugías ortognáticas. Se realizaron 16 cirugías bimaxilares (76%), 3 cirugías de avance maxilar superior (14%) y 2 cirugías de osteotomía sagital de rama (10%). Las principales etiologías fueron: 67% maloclusión clase III (n = 14), 28% maloclusión clase II (n = 6) y 5% desviación mandibular (n = 1). La planificación prequirúrgica virtual fue utilizada en 11 pacientes (52%). La tasa de complicaciones Clavien-Dindo > III fue 4,8% (n = 1). Conclusiones: En nuestra experiencia, las técnicas de cirugía ortognática son seguras. Las complicaciones de la serie fueron escasas y bien toleradas por los pacientes. Durante los últimos años y, de acuerdo a los avances tecnológicos, la incorporación de la planificación quirúrgica virtual 3D favoreció el desarrollo de la cirugía ortognática en nuestro centro.
Introduction: Technological advances have been incorporated into cranio-maxillo-facial surgery changing the clinical practice of surgeons. Aim: The aim of this article is to describe our experience in orthognatic surgery in the last 9-years, with the incorporation of 3D cephalometry. Materials and Method: A retrospective chart review was performed from January 2011 to August 2018 on patients undergoing Orthognatic Surgery. Demographic and surgical data, type of surgical planning, complications and long-term results were recorded. Results: A total of 21 patients underwent orthognatic surgery. Average age was 28 years (DE 8.1), 11 men (52.3%) and 10 women (47.61%). The principal surgeries performed were: 16 (76%) bimaxillary, 3 maxillary advancement surgery 3 (14%) and bilateral sagital split osteotomy 2 (10%). Ethiologies were: 14 patients (this 67%) with malocclusion class III, 6 patients (28%) with malocussion class II, and 1 patient (5%) with mandibular deviation. Virtual 3D presurgical planning was used in 11 patients (52%). The total of complications Clavien-Dindo > III was 4.8% (n = 1). None patient required reoperation. Satisfaction rate with the procedure was high. Conclusions: Based on our experience, orthognatic surgery techniques are safe. The complication rate was lower and well tolerated by patients. The introduction of virtual planning provided a better scenario to develop maxillo-facial surgery.

Phlegmasia Caerulea Dolens is a rare complication of deep vein thrombosis. It presents with a sudden onset of pain, swelling, discoloration and arterial compromise of the affected limb. Theres usually history of prothrombotic events such as malignancy, femoral vein catheterism, antiphospholipid syndrome, recent surgery, pregnancy, etc. Left without treatment, it can evolvein to gangrene, septic shock and death. Diagnosis usually only requires clinical appreciation.Confirmation can be done with ultrasonographic studies with doppler. Treatment can be both medical and surgically based. Medical therapy can be done with heparin and elevation of the affected limb or the use of thrombolytic, whilst surgical therapy can be either venous thrombectomy or amputation. We present the case of a 57-year old smoker, diabetic, and with systemic lupus erythematosus history female patient, that goes to the emergency room with sudden left leg pain, with cyanosis and absence of distal pulses. Besides she presented with lower respiratory symptoms. Diagnosis was confirmed with ultrasound and CT pulmonary angiography was performed showing pulmonary embolism. Medical treatment was initiated with good response.
