RESUMO

Background: Nowadays, multimodal cancer therapy results in very high survival rates of early-stage breast cancer and microsurgical flap-based breast reconstruction has become safe and reliable, with gradually increasing demand because of its durable and aesthetically pleasing results. This study aimed to explore the impact of different flap shaping and inset techniques on patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) with regard to the aesthetic result in abdominal flap-based breast reconstruction. Methods: A systematic review was performed screening Pubmed, Cochrane Library and Web of Science for original articles reporting flap inset strategies, concomitantly providing PROMs on the aesthetic result. Results: Of 319 studies identified, six met the inclusion criteria. The studies described different flap rotation options according to the patient's morphology, different inset planes, and avoidance of the monitoring skin paddle, and suggested that a higher flap-to-mastectomy mass ratio was associated with better aesthetic results. In two comparative studies, according to the PROMs (BREAST-Q, Likert scale) and independent observer judgement, both higher patient satisfaction and superior aesthetic results were observed with the newly described techniques. Conclusions: Emphasis on the aesthetic outcome in terms of breast shape and symmetry, providing an individualized approach of flap inset, considering the contralateral breast's shape and volume, results in higher satisfaction scores.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Gigantomastia is a debilitating condition characterised by an excessive breast tissue growth impacting patients' quality of life. Surgically treatment options include the limited-length pedicle (LP) technique with free nipple grafting (FNG) and the elongated pedicle (EP) technique, which maintains continuity of the nipple-areola complex (NAC). Initially, despite the less satisfactory aesthetic outcome, FNG was preferred to treat hypertrophic breasts requiring resections over 1000 g of parenchymal and adipose tissue, due to concerns about NAC perfusion. Recently, many studies have questioned this indication. The aim of this study was therefore to evaluate the safety of the NAC-carrying EP technique in patients with gigantomastia eventually challenging the need for FNG. METHODS: A literature search using PubMed and Cochrane databases was performed, including studies describing the outcome of EP technique for resection exceeding 1000 g of breast tissue. Thereby, a meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the rate of NAC necrosis, whereas a descriptive statistic was applied to assess all other surgery-associated complications. RESULTS: Twenty-five studies, encompassing 1355 patients (2656 breasts), were included. EP demonstrated an extremely low rate of NAC necrosis. Moreover, the analysis demonstrated a low rate of ischaemia-independent complications and a very high probability of maintaining NAC-sensation equal to the preoperative state. CONCLUSION: Current evidence indicates that the EP technique should be the preferred surgical method to treat gigantomastia with or without massive ptosis whenever indicated. It has proven to be safe. Furthermore, it yields superior aesthetic and functional outcomes, including breast feeding and preservation of NAC-sensation compared to the LP technique.

RESUMO

Burn injuries of the hands happens very often. Up to 80 % of all severe burn victims suffer from a participation of their hands. A meticulous reconstruction of these areas is mandatory due to their important properties in form, function and aesthetic outcome. The treatment options actually are impressed by the efforts to reduce invasiveness, to increase the selectivity of necrectomy as well as the natural capacity of tissue regeneration.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Beneficial effects of BPD on T2DM in BMI >35 kg/m(2) patients are far better than those in patients with BMI 25-35. This study was aimed at investigating if a similar difference exists between patients with mild obesity (OB, BMI 30-35) or simple overweight (OW, BMI 25-30). METHODS: Fifteen OB (six M) and 15 OW (13 M), diabetic for ≥ 3 years, with HbA1c ≥ 7.5% despite medical therapy, underwent BPD. OB/OW: age 55.1 ± 8.0/57.8 ± 6.7 years, BMI 33.1 ± 1.5/28.0 ± 1.3 kg/m(2), diabetes duration 11.6 ± 8.0/11.1 ± 6.1 years, insulin therapy 4/8 p. FSG and HbA1c were determined preoperatively and up to 2 years. Insulin resistance and beta-cell function were explored by means of HOMA-IR and IVGTT (AIR). Thirty-eight diabetic patients on medical therapy served as controls. RESULTS: Mean BMI stabilized around 27 since the 4th month in OB, and 24 since 1st month in OW. FSG in OB/OW preop, 1, 12, 24 months: 234 ± 76/206 ± 62 mg/dL, 154 ± 49/176 ± 75, 131 ± 32/167 ± 48, 134 ± 41/154 ± 41 (cross-sectional n.s. at all times); HbA1c: 9.5 ± 1.6/9.1 ± 1.3, 7.3 ± 1.1/7.3 ± 1.2, 5.9 ± 0.6/7.1 ± 1.1 (p < 0.01), 5.9 ± 0.9/6.9 ± 1.1 (p < 0.01). HOMA-IR, preoperatively 10.7 ± 5.8/7.5 ± 5.4, went below 3.0 at 1 month and remained such until 2 years in both groups. AIR, preoperatively 1.11 ± 3.17/1.27 ± 2.68 µIU/mL, in OB significantly increased at 4 months to 7.63 ± 5.79, maintained up to 2 years with 6.95 ± 3.19, whereas in OW, statistical significance was reached only at 2 years with 5.02 ± 4.87. CONCLUSIONS: Significantly different BPD effect, thus biological severity of T2DM, also exists between mildly obese and simply overweight patients. The rise of AIR allows hoping that an increase of beta-cell mass may occur in the long run.
