ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Macroscopic clinical evidence of tissue damaging following bariatric surgery pushed plastic surgeons to presume microscopic alterations as well.METHODS:
Five preliminary cases studied randomly, and compared with healthy tissues, confirmed these initial suspects. A deeper and wider study has then been structured.RESULTS:
Preliminary results are so evident to encourage us to carry on an estimated 2-3 years multidisciplinary study.CONCLUSIONS:
What we want to study is if histological post-bariatric alterations are confirmed, and if these can be considered responsible for higher complication rate in body contouring following bariatric surgery.
