Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Measure fat graft resorption rate after washing with buffered lactate by volumeric MRI imaging

    MRI Breast performed before the first lipofilling session, at 1st and 6th months after the lipofilling procedure. Volume measurement performed using OsiriX (v7.0.3, 64 bit , Pixmeo c)

    6 month after breast lipofilling

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Confounding factors

    6 month after breast lipofilling

Study Arms (1)

Breast Lipofilling Technique

Preliminary MRI breast were performed for volumetric measurement. Fat harvesting performed by same surgeon using water-assisted liposuction (WAL) and subsequent washing with buffered lactate in a standardized technique. Fat transfer performed using Berlin autologous lipotransplantation technique according to the BEAULI protocol .Patient were followed up monthly and MRI breast were repeated at 1st and 6th months after lipofilling. Clinical assessment and MRI Volumetric measurement performed using OsiriX (v7.0.3, 64 bit, Pixmeo c) software by same radiologist based on predefined operational procedure

Procedure: Technique of Breast Lipofilling

Interventions

1. Identification of the donor site Procedure carried out in single sessions under GA. Abdominal site identified and outlined with a skin marker. 2. Fat Harvesting Berlin autologous lipotransplantation technique used according to the BEAULI protocol described by Ueberreiter et al. Infiltration solution -"Klein'solution" contains 1 cc of epinephrine (1:500,000) diluted in 500 cc of 0.001% lactate ringer solution (LRS). 3. Fat Processing After aspiration of nonviable components of the aspirate, fat graft washed using Lactate Ringer Solution for three times. The fat processing and washing were performed by the same assistant for all patients. 4. Fat Transfer (Injection) Fat is injected in small amounts as the needle is gradually withdrawn. Periglandular planes and intrapectoral planes are used. Intraparenchymal injection avoided.
