    (2014) CINTRA JUNIOR, WILSON; MODOLIN, MIGUEL; KASABKOJIAN, STEPHANIE TOSCANO; ROCHA, RODRIGO ITOCAZO; ZAMPIERI, LÍGIA; GEMPERLI, ROLF
    ABSTRACT Introduction: Upper limb deformity caused by massive weight loss can be corrected by brachioplasty. This plastic surgery improves limb contour, facilitates hygiene, and enables use of certain clothing. Objective: To present the cases, describe interventions and complications, and evaluate the satisfaction of patients who underwent brachioplasty after bariatric surgery. Method: Herein, 34 patients (including 33 females) aged 46.6 ± 12 years, who underwent brachioplasty after bariatric surgery, were recruited for the study. Interventions and complications associated with the surgical procedure were described, and the satisfaction of 33 patients was evaluated by a qualitative interview and specific questionnaire. Results: As a minor complication, slight dehiscence was observed in five patients (14.7%), but no major surgical complications were seen. Some degree of satisfaction was reported by 81.8% of the patients, and the outcome achieved in 69.7% was close to that expected. Conclusions: The brachioplasty techniques that were used restored proper arm contour with a low rate of minor complications, and a high degree of satisfaction among the patients evaluated.

    Cirurgias plásticas para readequação de contorno corporal de pacientes submetidos a cirurgia bariátrica durante a adolescência
    (2012) ROCHA, Rodrigo Itocazo; GEMPERLI, Rolf; MODOLIN, Miguel Luiz Antonio; CINTRA JUNIOR, Wilson; VELHOTE, Manoel Carlos Prieto; FERREIRA, Marcus Castro
    BACKGROUND: Surgical treatments for obesity in adolescents were introduced in the 1990s, resulting in individuals undergoing bariatric surgery, and exhibiting weight loss and dysmorphic body features. This produced a demand for plastic surgery in order to readjust the body contour. The aim of this study was to identify factors associated with morbidity and mortality for these corrective body contouring plastic surgeries in patients who underwent bariatric surgery during adolescence. METHODS: Between January 2008 and January 2011, 5 adolescent patients underwent gastric bypass surgery, with a consequent loss and stabilization of weight, and then underwent plastic surgery for correcting body contours. The average age of the patients at the time of plastic surgery was 19.7 years; 3 (60%) patients were female. Abdominoplasty was performed in all patients (100%), crural dermolipectomy in 4 (80%) patients, brachial dermolipectomy in 2 (40%) patients, thoracoplasty in 2 (40%) patients, torsoplasty in 2 (40%) patients, and a reverse abdominoplasty in 1 (20%) patient. In addition, mammoplasty with inclusion of silicone implants was performed in 2 (40%) female patients, whereas the other female patient (20%) underwent mastopexy. A male patient (20%) underwent correction of gynecomastia. An average of 3 surgical interventions were performed on each patient (range, 2 - 5), and the number of surgical sites was 20. RESULTS: Dehiscence occurred in 3 (15% of the surgical sites) cases, and it was necessary to revise the resection because of residual skin laxity in 3 (15% of the surgical sites) patients. CONCLUSIONS: Some factors associated with body contouring plastic surgeries in adolescents were identified and compared with the literature data.

    Prospective study of inflammatory response in patients submitted to abdominoplasty after bariatric surgery [Estudo prospectivo da reposta inflamatória em pacientes submetidas à abdominoplastia pós-cirurgia bariátrica]
    (2021) GIULIANI, N. D. R.; MODOLIN, M.; JUNIOR, W. C.; ROCHA, R. I.; GEMPERLI, R.
    Introduction: Obesity is a chronic inflammatory disease associated with changes in inflammatory markers such as interleukins and CRP. This study evaluates the inflammatory response, through variations in interleukins and CRP, in patients undergoing abdominoplasty. Methods: Fourteen patients underwent abdominoplasty after weight loss achieved through bariatric surgery to maintain weight loss for at least18 months. Il4, IL6, IL10 and PCR levels were verified at times: preoperative, during surgery, 24 hours after surgery, 7th postoperative day and 14th postoperative day. Results: IL4 increased in the 24 hours postoperatively and continued on the rise until the 14th day. IL10 went up during surgery and began to fall in the 24 hours postoperatively to levels lower than the initial ones. IL6 began to rise during surgery, being more expressive in the 24 hours postoperatively, followed by a fall until the 14th day. CRP increased 24 hours postoperatively and remained discharged until the 14th day. Conclusion: Abdominoplasty reduced the chronic inflammatory systemic condition. © 2021, Sociedade Brasileira de Cirurgia Plastica (SBCP). All rights reserved.

    Tratamento das dismorfias coxofemorais em pacientes ex-obesos
    (2012) CINTRA JUNIOR, Wilson; MODOLIN, Miguel; ROCHA, Rodrigo Itocazo; MULATTI, Sheila Carvajal; GEMPERLI, Rolf; FERREIRA, Marcus Castro
    BACKGROUND: Patients showing massive weight loss eventually develop excessive skin and fat in several body parts, including the lower extremities. Given the diversity of the localization, shape, and content of coxofemoral dysmorphia, this study proposes guidelines for planning and systematizing the treatment of each deformity. METHODS: Twenty-eight female patients who underwent thigh lifts and showed 3 types of deformities were assessed. The deformities encompassed the upper third of the thigh alone, the upper and middle thirds, or the entire medial aspect of the thighs. A specific technique was used for treating each type of deformity. Moreover, when necessary, suspension of the lateral thigh was combined with liposuction. Patient satisfaction with the surgical results was assessed by a graded questionnaire. Unexpected events, complications, and treatments were recorded. RESULTS: Mobility, hygiene, sexual performance, use of clothing, and scars were assessed as excellent (80.5%), good (14.5%), and regular (5%). CONCLUSIONS: Considering the broad heterogeneity of thigh dysmorphia in formerly obese patients, therapeutic guidelines correlating each type of deformity with a specific treatment are necessary.
