“…Además, en todas las pacientes realizamos lipoescultura de las zonas demarcadas con transferencia de grasa a glúteos (promedio 200 -240 cc en cada glúteo y por aplicación directa, sin procesamiento) complementando de esta forma el procedimiento para lograr mejores resultados del contorno corporal, siguiendo todo el procedimiento y evolución con control fotográfico (7).…”

ResumenLa abdominoplastia es el procedimiento de elección para corregir la flacidez abdominal, la lipodistrofia supra e infraumbilical y la diástasis de los rectos abdominales. Los nuevos métodos aña-den liposucción para definir el contorno corporal.Presentamos una estandarización de medidas para lograr una cicatriz abdominal baja y pexia pubiana en casos de lipodistrofias tipo III y IV de Matarasso.Realizamos un estudio observacional, descriptivo y retrospectivo, evaluando las historias clínicas y las fotografías sobre 420 mujeres, con edades entre 18 y 63 años, intervenidas entre 2004 y 2011.Basamos la técnica quirúrgica en los siguientes principios: referencias anatómicas; medidas estandarizadas con la paciente de pie sobre zapatos de tacón alto para el trazado de una incisión suprapúbica baja, siguiendo diseño de los autores; pexia de pubis y región inguinal; cicatriz suprapúbica baja cubierta por un biquini estándar.El 70,95% de los casos (298 pacientes) correspondieron a abdomen grado IV de lipodistrofia, el 28,57% (120 pacientes) al grado III y el 0,47% (2 pacientes) al grado II según Matarasso. Las complicaciones más frecuentes fueron: seroma, (4,04%), alteraciones cicatríciales (7,37%), necrosis parcial y epidermolisis (2,38%) y estenosis umbilical (1,19%).Como conclusión creemos que la estandarización de medidas para el diseño de la cicatriz en la abdominoplastia permite obtener resultados estéticos predecibles y funcionales buenos: cicatriz baja cubierta por un biquini o ropa interior estándar, cicatriz umbilical ovalada, pexia de pubis y excelente definición del contorno abdominal y corporal, con baja tasa de complicaciones.Palabras clave Abdominoplastia, Cicatriz abdominoplastia, Contorno corporal. Nivel de evidencia científica IV AbstractThe abdominoplasty is the procedure of choice for correction of abdominal flaccidity, supra and infraumbilical lipodystrophy and diastasis of the abdominal muscles. New techniques include fascial plication of the rectus abdominis, traction of the external oblique muscle and liposuction to define the waist line.We present.standard measurements for low scar and pubic pexia, concealable with for lipodystrophy type III and IV of Matarasso.We conduct a retrospective observational study with 420 female patients, between 18 and 63 years, operated on between 2004 and 2011, reviewing medical records and photographsThe technique is based on the following principles: anatomical references; standard measures taken with the patient standing over high heels for plotting a low suprapubic incision, following the authors design; pubic pexia and low suprapubic scar covered by a standard bikini.Results: 70,95% (298 patients) had abdominal lipodystrophy grade IV, 28,57% (120 patients) had grade III and 0,47% (2 patients) had grade II according to Matarasso. The most common complications were: seroma (4,04%), scar tissue alterations (7,37%), partial necrosis and epidermolysis (2,38%) and umbilical stenosis (1,19%).In conclusion, the standardization of measures for the design of the abd...

Photographs for anthropometric measurements of the breast region. Are there limitations?

et al. 2015

PURPOSE:To determine the limitations of the photographs used to obtain the anthropometric measurements of the breast region. METHODS:Five women, between the ages of 18 to 60 years, were evaluated. Photographs of the frontal and left and right profile views of their breasts were taken. Based on the current literature, the most commonly used anthropometric and anatomic landmarks for breast measurement were marked in their different positions. The different points were used to evaluate if the direct anthropometry was possible in a standardized way and determine how the points and the positions can to be used in any breast measurements. RESULTS:There were some limitations to the use of defining points of the breast fold, as well as of its lower portion and lateral extension positions in both profiles. CONCLUSION:The defining points of the breast fold and the profile photographs have some limitations and we suggested how the points and positions can be used for breasts measurements.

“…The third system, which has the potential for the most favorable results, consists of two flashes placed at 458 angles to the subject and an additional flash aimed at the top of the subject from behind, to prevent background shadows (Fig. 3) (Gilmore and Miller, 1988;Gherardini et al, 1997;DiBernardo et al, 1998;Galdino et al, 2001Galdino et al, , 2002Yavuzer et al, 2001;Barut et al, 2003;Ettorre et al, 2006). Under studio-light conditions, a small aperture settings (f < 16) and short exposure times (<1/125 s) can be easily achieved, assuring an appropriate depth of field and preventing the loss of sharpness attributable to camera shake (Ettorre et al, 2006).…”

Guidelines for standard photography in gross and clinical anatomy

Photography has a widespread usage in medicine and anatomy. In this review, authors focused on the usage of photography in gross and clinical anatomy. Photography in gross and clinical anatomy is not only essential for accurate documentation of morphological findings but also important in sharing knowledge and experience. Photographs of cadavers are supposed to demonstrate the required information clearly. Thus, photographs should be taken with certain techniques in order to obtain high quality and standardization. Camera, lens, lighting, background, and certain photographic techniques are among the factors to achieve precise images. A set of suggested guidelines for accomplishing these standards are given for anatomists.
