Restoration of the Donor after Face Graft Procurement for Allotransplantation: Report on the Technique and Outcomes of Seven Cases

bpgcoms — Sun, 20 May 2012 08:14:14 +0000

Background: After organ retrieval, restoration of the donor is a legal and ethical necessity; this is particularly true in facial transplantation. However, very few data are available regarding this procedure.
Methods: This article reviews the seven facial masks produced during seven consecutive face transplants carried out at Henri Mondor Hospital in Paris, France. The time of production, morphologic outcome, and donor family feedback were recorded. Technical tips and pitfalls are also discussed.
Results: Recording an impression of the donor’s face with alginate required less than 25 minutes and, in all cases, the production of a resin mask was completed before the surgical harvesting was finished. Although all morphologic results were satisfactory or very satisfactory, the best outcomes were achieved using a total face mask, avoiding color discrepancies. Family feedback was positive, and none of the funeral ceremonies was disturbed by the procedure.
Conclusions: The production of a full-face resin mask is a reliable and reproducible technique. This procedure restores donor integrity and gives a very satisfactory morphologic and aesthetic outcome.
CLINICAL QUESTION/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic, IV.

Brava and Autologous Fat Transfer Is a Safe and Effective Breast Augmentation Alternative: Results of a 6-Year, 81-Patient, Prospective Multicenter Study

bpgcoms — Sat, 19 May 2012 03:14:14 +0000

Background: Breast augmentation by autologous fat transfer is an appealing alternative in need of scientific validation.
Methods: In a prospective multicenter study, 81 women (age range, 17 to 63 years) wore the Brava device, a bra-like vacuum-based external tissue expander, for 4 weeks and then underwent autologous fat injection using 10 to 14 needle puncture sites into each breast in a three-dimensional fanning pattern (average, 277 ml volume injected per breast). Patients resumed Brava wear within 24 hours for 7 or more days. Pretreatment and posttreatment breast volumes were derived from three-dimensional volumetric reconstruction of magnetic resonance imaging scans, and outcomes were compared with a meta-analysis of six recent published reports on autologous fat transfer breast augmentation without expansion. Follow-up ranged from 12 months to 6 years (average, 3.7 years).
Results: Breast volume was unchanged between 3 and 6 months. Seventy-one of the treated women were compliant with Brava wear and had a mean augmentation volume at 12 months of 233 ml per breast compared with 134 ml per breast in published series without Brava (p < 0.00001). Graft survival was 82 ± 18 percent compared with 55 ± 18 percent without Brava (p < 0.00001). There was a strong linear correlation (R2 = 0.87) between pregrafting Brava expansion and the resultant breast augmentation. There were no suspicious breast masses or nodules. Magnetic resonance imaging recognized a 16 percent incidence of fat necrosis easily identified at 1-year mammographic evaluation.
Conclusion: The addition of Brava expansion before autologous fat grafting leads to significantly larger breast augmentations, with more fat graft placement, higher graft survival rates, and minimal graft necrosis or complications, demonstrating high safety and efficacy for the procedure.
CLINICAL QUESTION/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic, IV.

Single-Stage Breast Reconstruction with the Anterior Approach Latissimus Dorsi Flap and Permanent Implants

bpgcoms — Sat, 19 May 2012 01:14:43 +0000

Background: Traditional latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap breast reconstruction results in a large wound on the back, difficult inset of flap, and skin color disparity. An anterior approach to harvesting the latissimus dorsi muscle flap reduces morbidity, and with skin-sparing mastectomy, immediate single-stage reconstruction with a permanent implant is provided.
Methods: A retrospective review was performed of patients who underwent skin-sparing mastectomies and immediate reconstruction with the anterior approach latissimus dorsi muscle flap and permanent implant with 6- to 12-month follow-up. All procedures were performed by a single surgeon at three facilities from January of 2008 through December of 2008. Data included the patient’s age; body mass index; history of axillary dissection, chemotherapy, or irradiation; occurrence of seroma, flap necrosis, infection, or cellulitis; and the need for further surgery.
Results: Fifty-eight reconstructions were performed in 36 patients (bilateral, 22 patients). Major complications included pulmonary embolism in one patient, removal of both implants in one patient because of infection, and removal of one implant because of hematoma. Minor complications included seroma in 40 of 58 procedures (68.9 percent), flap necrosis in seven (12 percent), cellulitis in four (6.8 percent), and a secondary procedure for cosmesis in four (6.8 percent). Seroma formation was more frequent in patients with a body mass index greater than 25 kg/m2, patients aged older than 50 years, and after axillary dissection (p > 0.05).
Conclusions: The anterior approach latissimus dorsi muscle flap with permanent implants provides a single-stage reconstructive option after skin-sparing mastectomy. Postoperative morbidity is comparable to that of the traditional latissimus dorsi muscle flap.
CLINICAL QUESTION/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic, IV.

The Fate of Adipocytes after Nonvascularized Fat Grafting: Evidence of Early Death and Replacement of Adipocytes

bpgcoms — Fri, 18 May 2012 18:14:25 +0000

Background: Clinical outcomes following fat grafting are variable and technique dependent, and it is unknown how the graft is revascularized. The authors recently observed that living and dead adipocytes can be differentiated not with hematoxylin and eosin staining but with immunohistochemistry for perilipin.
Methods: The viability of cellular components (adipocytes, adipose stem/stromal/progenitor cells, vascular endothelial cells, and hematopoietic cells) in human adipose tissue was evaluated using (1) stored lipoaspirates, (2) cultured cells, and (3) organ-cultured adipose tissue. In addition, the groin fat pad (150 to 200 mg) in mice was transplanted under the scalp, and the graft was stained at 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, or 14 days.
Results: In vitro studies revealed that adipocytes are most susceptible to death under ischemic conditions, although adipose-derived stromal cells can remain viable for 3 days. The in vivo study indicated that most adipocytes in the graft began to die on day 1, and only some of the adipocytes located within 300 ?m of the tissue edge survived. The number of proliferating cells increased from day 3, and an increase in viable adipocyte area was detected from day 7, suggesting that repair/regeneration of the dead tissue had begun.
Conclusions: The authors show convincing evidence of very dynamic remodeling of adipose tissue after nonvascularized grafting. The authors observed three zones from the periphery to the center of the graft: the surviving area (adipocytes survived), the regenerating area (adipocytes died, adipose-derived stromal cells survived, and dead adipocytes were replaced with new ones), and the necrotic area (both adipocytes and adipose-derived stromal cells died).
