RESUMO
: Complications of female abdominoplasty are well known. Males prone to centripetal obesity may have minimal subcutaneous fat and significant hypogastric skin laxity making them apparent good candidates for abdominoplasty. We describe a case of severe gastroesophageal reflux following male abdominoplasty presumably secondary to increased intraabdominal pressure. This type of regional obesity should be recognized preoperatively as it may place the patient at higher risk. A preoperative diet and exercise program is a consideration.
