ABSTRACT
The increase in the number of patients who undergo massive weight loss surgery has led to an increasing number of patients who complain of circumferential abdominal skin and soft tissue excess. Currently, the only surgical option to treat soft tissue excess is vertical median abdominal lipectomy (fleur-de-lys technique). However, many patients are reluctant to undergo this surgery because of the position of the scar. We presented a new surgical approach to manage circumferential excess - dorsal median lipectomy (arrow technique) - in which the dorsal scar is well-tolerated by patients.
