Liposuction in Dercum's disease. Clinical studies regarding Dercum's disease and the effect of liposuction.
… have been published on the promising effect of liposuction. The aims of this study were to investigate the effect of liposuction on thermal and sensory sensation, to examine the effect of liposuction on the pain experienced by patients, to examine neuropeptide levels in cerebrospinal fluid and …

Korrelation der bioelektrischen Impedanz-Analyse (BIA) und Lebensqualität nach körperformenden Eingriffen in der Plastischen Chirurgie
… study, long-term effects of abdominoplasty and liposuction on fat-/BMI-values and changes in quality of life were analysed. Materials and methods: The study included two patient groups who underwent plastic surgery between October 1998 and November 2001. 57 patients (group A) underwent …

Ethnic-specific associations between abdominal and gluteal fat distribution and the metabolic complications of obesity : implications for the use of liposuction
More than three-quarters (77%) of the 40.5 million people living in South Africa are black African, of which more than 40% are urbanised. Black African women living in urban areas have a significantly higher prevalence (62%) of overweight than urban black males (28%) or white females (53%). It was …

Development of a fat concentration device for plastic and reconstructive surgery applications
The utilisation of liposuction derived autologous fat tissue in cosmetic and reconstructive surgery is increasingly common. There is no standardized method for concentrating liposuction derived fat for re-injection, but a number of approaches exist, many of which require multiple manipulations of …

Optimierung der Proliferation und Differenzierung humaner Präadipozyten durch den Einsatz von humanem Serum
… study, the yield of preadipocytes obtained from liposuction material was compared to that of excised adipose tissue. Furthermore, we compared the two media DMEM and OptiMEM and their effects on proliferation and adipogenic conversion. We also investigated the effects of FCS versus human serum on …

Towards an autologous tissue engineering construct for craniofacial bone repair
… blood, and adipose-derived stem cells from liposuction. The objectives of these studies are to evaluate the effects of fibrin scaffolds and platelet-rich plasma on adipose-derived stem cells and their ability to heal critical-size bone defects in a porcine animal model. During coagulation of …

Perceptions of Cosmetic Alteration in Different Sized Attractive Women.
… In Phase 2, knowledge of the woman's plans for liposuction, which was disclosed in a second description of the target, dramatically lowered the participants' evaluations of her physical attractiveness, willingness to help a friend in need, and likelihood as a potential friend. The women's …

Differentiation plasticity of stromal vascular fraction cells towards adipose tissue and endothelial structures
… vascular fraction (SVF) cells were isolated from liposuction aspirates or excised adi-pose tissue and separated into CD31+ and CD31- populations by magnet-assisted cell sorting. Differentiation to fat tissue was induced in both CD31 fractions. Differentiation was assayed enzymatically and by cell …

Investigating adipose tissue angiogenesis in obesity reveals a novel role for thrombospondin-1.
… approaches and surgery (gastric band surgery and liposuction). However, the prevalence of obesity continues to increase inexorably, particularly in the Asia Pacific region (Gill 2006; Low et al., 2009), and thus further advancements in obesity treatment are needed, ideally avoiding invasive …

Functional Tissue Engineering of Cartilage Using Adipose-derived Stem Cells
… easily obtained through a minimally invasive liposuction procedure. When appropriately stimulated, ASCs have demonstrated significant potential for chondrogenic differentiation. Though studies have demonstrated the ability of ASCs to synthesize cartilage-specific macromolecules, a more …

Die Gefäßarchitektur der Bauchwand und ihre Stellung in der Plastischen Chirurgie : eine anatomische Untersuchung
… the greater the vertical traction. Additional liposuction around the umbilicus can reduce vertical traction, so might SAL (suction-assisted lipectomy) and PTS (progressive tension sutures). A broadly dissected basis of the umbilical stalk will contribute to stability but will not result in …

Untersuchungen zur Wirksamkeit und Verträglichkeit von Lokalanästhetika für die Lokalanästhesie und die Tumeszenzlokalanästhesie
Die Tumeszenz-Lokalanästhesie (TLA) ist ein lokales Betäubungsverfahren, das zur Erleichterung der Fettabsaugung eingeführt wurde und eine zuverlässige Anästhesie auch ausgedehnter Operationsareale ermöglicht. In Europa wird jedoch statt Lidoacin häufiger Prilocain wegen der geringeren Toxizität …
