A Simple, Reliable, and Inexpensive Method for Seroma Drainage

Im ages Seromas and hematomas are relatively common complications of a variety of surgical procedures. In plastic surgery, they may occur in the postoperative period of abdominoplasty or abdominal wall reconstruction, mastectomy or breast reconstruction, lymphadenectomy, or voluminous neoplasm excision. Furthermore, in our experience, seromas are particularly common in surgical procedures invol...

A simple inexpensive method for estimating underwater weight.

A description is given of a simple, inexpensive and versatile method for estimating underwater weight. The use of a portable stock tank allows the determination of % Fat by underwater weighing without requiring a swimming pool, built-in tank, or special facility. Twenty-eight college students were weighed on two separate testing sessions 24-48 hours apart. Ten trials were performed at each sess...

background: extraction of blood genomicdnais one of the main approaches for clinical and molecular biology studies. although several methods have been developed for extraction of blood genomic dna, most of these methods consume long time and use expensive chemicals such as proteinase k and toxic organic solvent such as phenol and chloroform. the objective of this study was to developed easy and...

A Simple, Reliable, and Inexpensive Intraoperative External Expansion System for Enhanced Autologous Structural Fat Grafting

External volume expansion of the recipient site by suction has been proposed as a way of improving fat graft survival. The objective of this study was to present an innovative and simple intraoperative external expansion system to enhance small-volume autologous fat grafting (40-80 mL) and to discuss its background and its mechanism of action. In this system, expansion is performed using a comp...
