ABSTRACT
El cuerpo adiposo de la boca (CAB) es un componente adiposo multilobulado bien delimitado, localizado de manera bilateral en la región facial íntimamente relacionado a estructuras nerviosas y vasculares. La remoción de CAB es un procedimiento ampliamente estudiado en el campo de la cirugía maxilofacial, utilizado principalmente para cubrir defectos. Su influencia en la estética facial ha iniciado una popularización de la remoción de la extensión bucal de CAB para obtener un rostro más estilizado, intervención difundida como poco invasiva y sin complicaciones. El objetivo de este estudio fue recopilar y evaluar estudios que reporten y evalúen complicaciones asociadas a la remoción por razones estéticas de CAB. Se revisó la evidencia en las bases de datos Medline vía PubMed, Epistemonikos, Scopus y Google Scholar, utilizando términos predefinidos, seleccionando estudios primarios de reportes de casos. Se incluyeron 7 artículos con un total de 10 pacientes; de estos, ocho pacientes se realizaron este procedimiento en Brasil, uno en Estados Unidos y uno en Chile. La distribución de la población fue de 3:7 entre hombres y mujeres con edad promedio de 35 años y un rango entre los 23 a los 49 años. En relación a las complicaciones reportadas, 100 % de los pacientes presentaron asimetría facial, un 80 % presentó edema facial, 30 % manifestaron sialocele, Trismus 20 %, 40 % presentó hematoma, 20 % compromiso del estado general, 20 % presentaron disfagia, en los casos de hipoestesia, parestesia, absceso, seroma, parálisis facial, odinofagia, fiebre se expresaron en 10 % de la población estudiada. En todos los estudios se describió una reintervención quirúrgica posterior a la remoción estética del cuerpo adiposo de bichat. La escasa literatura y la baja calidad de esta, no permite estimar el porcentaje real de posibles complicaciones, tampoco es posible determinar sus resultados a largo plazo ya que no existe en la evidencia un seguimiento apropiado para estos pacientes.
The buccal adipose body (BAB) is a well- defined multilobulated adipose component, located bilaterally in the facial region, closely related to nervous and vascular structures. BAB removal is a widely studied procedure in the field of maxillofacial surgery, used mainly to cover defects. Its influence on facial aesthetics has started to popularize the removal of the BAB buccal extension to obtain a more stylized face, an intervention widely known as minimally invasive and without complications. The objective of this study was to collect and evaluate studies that report and evaluate complications associated with the removal of BAB for cosmetic reasons. The evidence was reviewed in the Medline databases via PubMed, Epistemonikos, Scopus, and Google Scholar, using predefined terms, selecting primary studies from case reports. 7 articles with a total of 10 patients were included; Of these, eight patients underwent this procedure in Brazil, one in the United States, and one in Chile. The distribution of the population was 3:7 between men and women with an average age of 35 years and a range between 23 to 49 years. In relation to the reported complications, 100 % of the patients presented facial asymmetry, 80 % presented facial edema, 30 % manifested sialocele, trismus 20 %, 40 % presented hematoma, 20 % compromised general state, 20 % presented dysphagia, in the cases of hypoesthesia, paresthesia, abscess, seroma, facial paralysis, odynophagia, fever were expressed in 10 % of the studied population. All the studies described a surgical reintervention after cosmetic removal of the bichat adipose body. The scarce literature and its low quality do not allow estimating the real percentage of possible complications, nor is it possible to determine their long-term results since there is no evidence of appropriate follow-up for these patients.

Introdução: Atualmente, a lipoplastia facial tem sido muito estudada, e isso se justifica em decorrência dos resultados estéticos, dentre eles a valorização da projeção do osso zigomático. Poucas técnicas cirúrgicas foram descritas, principalmente em relação ao resultado de satisfação e do acesso que é realizado para a remoção da bola de Bichat. Este estudo tem como objetivo realizar uma análise de banco de dados para avaliar a satisfação do procedimento de bichectomia pelos próprios pacientes, além de descrever uma abordagem cirúrgica distinta da encontrada na literatura. Metodologia: Foram selecionados 47 pacientes para o procedimento, sendo este realizado em nível ambulatorial, seguindo a mesma técnica cirúrgica em todos os pacientes, os quais foram acompanhados por 7, 14, 30 e 60 dias de pós-operatório, verificando-se o processo de cicatrização e dados referentes à satisfação em todas as consultas realizadas. Resultados: Mediante a técnica empregada, houve um bom número inicial de pacientes satisfeitos com a cirurgia, que aumentou gradativamente conforme o acompanhamento. Conclusões: Assim, confirma-se que a bichectomia é um procedimento seguro, com poucas complicações, devendo haver uma maior amplitude nas pesquisas que visem avaliar o grau de satisfação dos pacientes para atender melhor as suas expectativas...

Introduction: Facial lipoplasty has been widely studied today because of the aesthetic results provided, such as the enhancement of the ossozygomatic projection. Few surgical techniques have been described, mainly in regard to the satisfaction result and the access that is made for the removal of the bichat ball. The objective of the present study is to perform a database analysis to evaluate satisfaction of the bichectomy procedure by the patients themselves, in addition to describing a surgical approach distinct from that found in the literature. Methodology: 47 patients were selected for the procedure, and the procedure was performed on an outpatient basis, following the same surgical technique in all patients, which were followed for 7, 14, 30 and 60 postoperative days, and the healing process was verified and satisfaction data in all consultations. Results: As a result, it can be observed that by the technique employed, there was a good initial number of patients satisfied with the surgery, which increased gradually as the follow-up in the more returns. Conclusions: Thus, it is confirmed that bichectomy is a safe procedure, with few complications, and more research should be done to evaluate the degree of patient satisfaction to meet their expectations...

Bichectomy is an intra oral surgical procedure, which is the excision of Bichat's fat pad, in order to make the patient's face thinner and bring to him/her greater harmony in the facial contour. The surgery is simple, fast, has a low rate of postoperative complications and can be performed by dental surgeons or plastic surgeons. This article will present a case report of a bichectomy procedure conducted by a dental surgeon on a female patient. The aesthetic results of this procedure can be effectively observed after a period of 4 to 6 months, when the swelling of the subcutaneous tissue is completely resorbed
Bichectomia é um procedimento cirúrgico, intraoral, no qual ocorre a excisão das bolas de Bichat, com o objetivo de afinar o rosto do paciente e conferir maior harmonia do contorno facial. A cirurgia é simples, rápida, e apresenta baixo índice de complicações pós cirúrgicas, podendo ser realizada por cirurgiões dentistas ou cirurgiões plásticos. Neste artigo, será apresentado um relato de caso clínico de um procedimento de bichectomia em uma paciente do sexo feminino, realizado por cirurgião dentista. Os resultados estéticos desse procedimento podem ser efetivamente observados após um período de 4 a 6 meses, quando o edema do tecido subcutâneo é completamente reabsorvido.
