Tumescent liposuction in Germany: history and new trends and techniques.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Due to the developments and changes of tumescent solution, infiltration technique, and cannulas, we perform tumescent liposuction today using up to 6-8 l tumescent solution. Total aspirate measures up to 9 l, pure fat aspired up to 5 l. Tumescent liposuction of extended areas can still be done as an outpatient procedure. The condition of patients intra- and postoperatively as well as results has improved and the predictability of outcome is more certain.

Liposuction - a surgical procedure in dermatology.
Liposuction is an integral part of the wide range of surgical procedures in dermatology. Dermatologists established tumescent local anesthesia in combination with the use of micro-cannulas; especially dermatologists from Germany and Austria actively designed and developed these new techniques. In this position paper, we discuss the history, various interdisciplinary aspects, the significance, a...
متن کاملEstimated Maximal Safe Dosages of Tumescent Lidocaine
BACKGROUND Tumescent lidocaine anesthesia consists of subcutaneous injection of relatively large volumes (up to 4 L or more) of dilute lidocaine (≤1 g/L) and epinephrine (≤1 mg/L). Although tumescent lidocaine anesthesia is used for an increasing variety of surgical procedures, the maximum safe dosage is unknown. Our primary aim in this study was to measure serum lidocaine concentrations after ...

متن کاملThe tumescent technique. Anesthesia and modified liposuction technique.
Using the tumescent technique, liposuction can remove large volumes of fat with minimal blood loss. A maximal safe dosage of dilute lidocaine using the tumescent technique is estimated to be 35 mg/kg. The slow infiltration of a local anesthetic solution of lidocaine and epinephrine minimizes the rate of systemic absorption and reduces the potential for toxicity. Dilution of lidocaine (0.05% of ...
متن کاملTumescent Liposuction without Lidocaine
BACKGROUND Our previous study demonstrated that lidocaine has a negative impact on adipose-derived stem cell (ASC) survival. Currently for large-volume liposuction, patients often undergo general anesthesia; therefore, lidocaine subcutaneous anesthesia is nonessential. We hypothesized that removing lidocaine from tumescent might improve stromal vascular fraction (SVF) and ASC survival from the ...
