BACKGROUND
Modern techniques for breast-reduction surgery depend on large surface de-epithelialization. The current gold standard technique involves the use of a scalpel for sharp debridement and is a time-consuming process that is labor-intensive and often requires an assistant to stabilize the breast. Surgeons who perform breast-reduction surgery continue to search for instruments and innovations that may reduce the time and effort required for successful de-epithelialization. One such innovation is the use of the VersaJet Hydrosurgery system. The purpose of this article is to highlight an important complication that may result from the use of this device.
METHODS
The authors describe their experience with the VersaJet Hydrosurgery System in reduction mammoplasty of 28 breasts.
RESULTS
The authors experienced several complications characterized by the formation of epithelial inclusion cysts requiring reoperation.
CONCLUSION
The VersaJet Hydrosurgery system may lead to quicker speeds of de-epithelialization as compared with traditional methods but poses a risk of epidermal cyst formation.
背景
现代乳房缩小手术技术依赖于大面积的表皮脱除。当前的金标准技术是使用手术刀进行锐性清创，这是一个耗时的过程，劳动强度大，且通常需要助手来固定乳房。进行乳房缩小手术的外科医生一直在寻找能够减少成功进行表皮脱除所需时间和精力的器械及创新方法。其中一项创新是使用VersaJet水刀手术系统。本文的目的是强调使用该设备可能导致的一种重要并发症。
方法
作者描述了他们在28例乳房缩小整形手术中使用VersaJet水刀手术系统的经验。
结果
作者遇到了几种并发症，其特征是形成了需要再次手术的上皮植入性囊肿。
结论
与传统方法相比，VersaJet水刀手术系统可能会使表皮脱除速度更快，但存在形成表皮囊肿的风险。
