    Abstract Background: Despite its rarity, cutaneous adipose tissue excess in the trochanteric region following massive weight loss is a surgical challenge. The aim of this work is to propose a surgical technique for lifting the outer thighs by describing its indications and its limitations.
    Methods: 74 patients were recruited into the study between 2018 2021. Two groups were identified: patients with bodylift combined with lateral thigh lift (n=20) and patients with lower bodylift (n=54). Satisfaction was obtained through the BODY Q questionnaire. The average operating time is 45 minutes longer when an outer thigh lift is performed. The median length of hospitalization is similar. The complication rate is 26% for the bodylift group and 60% for the thigh lift group (p<0.01); the most common complication is dehiscence.
    Results: Data analysis shows that the lateral thigh lift technique does not affect immediate postoperative evolution or hospitalization duration, proving its safety. There was an increase in total complications among patients who underwent lateral thigh lifts. Dehiscence is the most common complication, which is an outpatient treatment. The satisfaction rate is high. Satisfaction is linked to improved quality of life.
    Conclusions: In our experience, the technique described is an effective means of trochanteric deformities.

    Abstract Background: Patients with massive weight loss have excessive skin laxity along both vertical and transverse axes. Vertical body lift (VBL) is a body-contouring technique addressing both excesses, promoting not only body lifting but also a tightening effect. The aim of this study was to describe the authors' VBL surgical technique and its potential clinical applications. In addition, they present their experience among postbariatric surgery patients to compare surgical aspects and outcomes of VBL and the classic inferior body lift (IBL) technique.
    Methods: The authors reviewed data on 140 consecutive postbariatric surgery patients who underwent a body lift procedure between January of 2018 and March of 2020. The patients were divided into two groups: the VBL group and the IBL group. Patient demographics, operative details, and postoperative outcomes were compared between groups.
    Results: Of the 140 patients included in the study, 92 underwent IBL and 48 underwent VBL. There were no statistically significant differences between groups for surgical duration (IBL, 192 minutes; VBL, 193 minutes), hemoglobin decrease (IBL, 2.32 g/dL; VBL, 2.11 g/dL), hospital length of stay (IBL, 5.4 days; VBL, 5.7 days), or complication rate (IBL, 32%; VBL, 31%).
    Conclusions: The authors' study shows comparable operative details and postsurgical outcomes between the VBL and classic IBL techniques. In their experience, VBL is a reliable and reproducible technique that can improve aesthetic and functional outcomes in a subpopulation of approximately one-third of patients with massive weight loss.

    Abstract Microsurgical procedures are nowadays routinely performed worldwide in reconstructive surgery. The deep inferior epigastric artery perforator (DIEP) flap has become the gold standard in breast reconstruction due to its excellent outcomes and lower donor site morbidity. However, complications, including flap failure, still occur in DIEP flap breast reconstruction. Often, according to our experience, these complications result from pedicle disorders, which can be attributed to postoperative mobilization. In the present study, we evaluated the efficacy and safety of using a fibrin sealant as a method for pedicle stabilization to prevent pedicle mobilization in the postoperative period. With our technique, after the flap insetting and microsurgical anastomosis, the pedicle was stabilized by applying a fibrin sealant (TISSEEL™) around and over the entire pedicle. Our study included a homogeneous series of 70 patients who received a delayed DIEP flap breast reconstruction. A retrospective study was conducted to evaluate this novel technique compared to the conventional method. In our experience, the fibrin glue allowed us to reduce the strain for correct pedicle positioning and all subsequent efforts to avoid displacements in the postoperative period. Our preliminary results suggest that this method may lead to a reduction in overall complications attributable to pedicle disorders.
