Abstract:
:A 28-year-old woman underwent bilateral subcutaneous mastectomy and immediate reconstruction with silicone gel-filled prostheses. Three months after surgery, she developed an acute pressure sore on one side, owing to prolonged pressure of the insensitive breast against a hard surface. This complication is presented, the literature on the subject is reviewed, and brief considerations and recommendations are made.

杂志文章abstract:PURPOSE:An increase in bariatric surgery has led to a rise in postbariatric contouring procedures. Despite a comprehensive preoperative assessment, body habitus in these patients may significantly limit the abdominal exam.
