- Liposuction assisted Brachioplasty, evaluation of its efficacy and safety Alaa H. Al-Farhan Bahir Sabah Abood Allawi Mohammed Mustafa Wais Alaa lbrahim Mohammmed Jorani Medicina Liposuction Efficacy and Safety Assisted Brachioplasty Arm deformity after massive body weight loss is a major concern for many people. Brachioplasty procedures to deal with such deformity are various but not without complications. In this study, a comparison between the liposuction assisted brachioplasty and the standard procedure regarding the complications and patients’ satisfaction. All consecutive brachioplasty procedures that were done from Jan of 2017 until Sep of 2019 were reviewed prospective. Two plastic surgery teams in two private hospitals did these operations. Data was collected regarding the complications, duration of surgery and patients’ satisfaction. The total number of cases was 37. Group (1), including 15 patients (40.5%), were operated as liposuction assisted brachioplasty, and group (2), including 22 cases (59.5%), were operated as standard method without liposuction. All the cases were female group (1) average of age 37.19 ± 4 years old and group (2) average of age 38.94 ± 4.9 years old. For the first group, the average body mass index at time of surgery was 25.94 ± 2.4 kg/m2, and the mean average body mass index was 26.99 ± 3 kg for the second group. Aesthetic and functional satisfaction were excellent in 25.5% and 62% of the patients respectively in the first group. On the other hand, in the second group, aesthetic and functional satisfaction were excellent in 9% and 18 % of the patients respectively. liposuction assisted brachioplasty has a lower complications rate than the standard procedure and has better aesthetic and functional satisfaction. No major difference regarding the duration of surgery of both procedures. 2020 artículo científico 0798-0264 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=55965388016 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/559/55965388016/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/559/55965388016/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/559/55965388016/55965388016.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/559/55965388016/movil https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.4425582 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=559 Archivos Venezolanos de Farmacología y Terapéutica application/pdf Sociedad Venezolana de Farmacología Clínica y Terapéutica Archivos Venezolanos de Farmacología y Terapéutica (República Bolivariana de Venezuela) Num.7 Vol.39
