RESUMO
Tuberous breasts are defined by a shape anomaly, in certain relatively rare situations, patients are satisfied with the volume and only ask for a shape correction without increase or decrease. They may also be very young girls in whom the indication for implantation of a prosthesis could be premature or who do not have sufficient fat reserves for fat transfer. We discuss the different possible techniques and we propose a simple technique, relatively fast, easily reproducible whatever the experience of the surgeon, without vascular complications in our experience due to the absence of skin detachment, with a satisfactory and stable result in the time. The authors are based on a series of 12 patients operated between 2000 and 2021.

INTRODUCTION: Hand injuries have major psychological, social and professional repercussions. Treatment of burned hands is suggested to be early and optimal to avoid catastrophic consequences and allow social and professional rehabilitation. Our study analyses the long-term results obtained with Integra(®), a dermal substitute used for the treatment of deep burns of the hands. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 29 hands were treated with Integra(®). Long-term monitoring was performed on 12 hands with a clinical, ultrasonographic and elastometric study. The results were compared with those from a series of healthy hands. This study, with a low number of subjects, is a pilot report. RESULTS: This study showed a low complication rate, with a high percentage of engraftment of thin skin, and good cosmetic and functional quality. The thickness and viscoelasticity of the skin treated with Integra(®) in our series appeared to be similar to those of healthy skin. CONCLUSION: Integra(®) artificial skin is an attractive alternative in the treatment of deep burns of the hand and can achieve results with aesthetic and functional characteristics that are close to those of healthy skin.
