RESUMO

PURPOSE: Rates of implant failure, wound healing delay, and infection are higher in patients having radiation therapy (RT) after tissue expander (TE) and permanent implant reconstruction. We investigated pretreatment risk factors for TE implant complications. PATIENTS AND METHODS: 127 breast cancer patients had TE reconstruction and radiation. For 85 cases of bilateral TE reconstruction, the non-irradiated breast provided an internal control. Comparison of differences in means for continuous variables used analysis of variance, then multiple pairwise comparisons with Bonferroni correction of p value. RESULTS: Mean age was 53 ± 10.1 years with 14.6% African-American. Twelve (9.4%) were BRCA positive (9 BRCA1, 4 BRCA2, 1 Both). Complications were: Grade 0 (no complication; 43.9%), Grade 1 (tightness and/or drifting of implant or Baker Grade II capsular contracture; 30.9%), Grade 2 (infection, hypertrophic scarring, or incisional necrosis; 9.8%), Grade 3 (Baker Grade III capsular contracture, wound dehiscence, or impending exposure of implant; 5.7%), Grade 4 (implant failure, exchange of implant, or Baker Grade IV capsular contracture; 9.8%). 15.3% (19 cases) experienced Grade 3 or 4 complication and 9.8% (12 cases) had Grade 4 complication. Considering non-irradiated breasts, there were two (1.6%) Grade 3-4 complications. For BMI, there was no significant difference by category as defined by the CDC (p = 0.91). Patients with depression were more likely to experience Grade 3 or 4 complication (29.4 vs 13.2%; p = 0.01). Using multiple logistic regression to predict the probability of a Grade 3 or 4 complications in patients with depression were found to be 4.2 times more likely to have a Grade 3 or 4 complication (OR = 4.2, p = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS: Higher rates of TE reconstruction complications are expected in patients receiving radiotherapy. An unexpected finding was that patients reporting medical history of depression showed statistically significant increase in complication rates.

RESUMO

Cryolipolysis has become a popular non-invasive treatment for unwanted fatty collections. The benefits are minimal down time, short recovery time, and decreased pain, although pain is the most frequent complaint. The author recently treated a patient who presented with an enlarging adipose collection on his lower abdomen following cryolipolysis with CoolSculpting(®) (ZELTIQ Aesthetics, Inc., Pleasanton, CA).

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The reported incidence of hematoma following male rhytidectomy ranges from 7.9 to 12.9 percent. In 1976, it was demonstrated that postoperative hypertension is a key etiologic factor in hematoma formation and postoperative use of Thorazine was recommended to control blood pressure. This study analyzes the incidence of hematoma after male rhytidectomy at one institution after a strict and aggressive perioperative blood pressure control regimen was initiated. METHODS: From 1982 to 2002, 985 patients with a mean age of 61 years (range, 49 to 72 years) underwent rhytidectomy. Thirty-six patients required surgical evacuation of expanding hematoma after rhytidectomy. Operative procedures were performed by more than 100 different plastic surgery attending surgeons, residents, and fellows. RESULTS: The overall incidence of hematoma during this study period was 4.24 percent. Age, medical history, medications, type of anesthesia, rhytidectomy technique and combination of procedures, and length of operation were not independent risk factors for determining who was more likely to develop a hematoma. Thirty-three percent of the patients requiring surgical evacuation had systolic blood pressure greater than 150 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure greater than 90 mmHg preoperatively, intraoperatively, and postoperatively. Over a 30-year period, the incidence of hematoma requiring surgical evacuation has decreased from 8.7 percent to 3.97 percent after initiation of a strict perioperative blood pressure control regimen. CONCLUSION: Despite the lower incidence of hematoma following male rhytidectomy today as compared with 30 years ago, the incidence in men (3.97 percent) remains higher than that in women (1 to 3 percent).
