SUMMARY Autologous fat grafting is commonly performed in reconstructive breast surgery but also increasingly in breast augmentation surgery. On the international level, we are witnessing an important increased confidence for this procedure. Nevertheless, it continues to raise questions on the risks of cancer. A 66-year-old patient benefited from a lipofilling to improve a latissimus dorsi flap ...

Facial lipoatrophy is one of the most difficult complication in the patients with lupus profundus. In this paper, we present a case of a 55-year-old woman affected by lupus profundus, with a grade V lipoatrophy, treated with lipofilling technique. No complications were observed and results at 12 months were stable, natural, and symmetric.

IntroductIon: Lipofilling is gaining more and more popularity in plastic surgery. However, currently the tumorigenicity and angiogenic properties of lipoaspirates for correction of volume defects after breast conserving therapy, is discussed controversially. To assess the safety of lipotransfer into remaining breast tissue, the interaction of primary adipose derived stem cells (ADSC) and mammar...

Severe burn injuries to the hand represent a topic of great concern due to long-term complications such as hypertrofic burn scar and contracture, which may result in loss of function. We present a case of burn scar contracture in the hand of a child undergoing Z-plasty and lipofilling.
