Autologous fat grafting has been gaining popularity in recent years, although there remains concern regarding the safety and efficacy of the practice for breast surgery. The purpose of this study was to determine national trends for fat grafting to the breast and to establish the frequency and specific techniques of the procedure to provide more supportive data.
A questionnaire was e-mailed to 2584 members of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. Variables included prevalence and applications of fat grafting to the breast. Components of the fat graft protocol were also assessed.
Four hundred fifty-six of the 2584 questionnaires were completed. Sixty-two percent of all respondents reported currently using fat grafting for reconstructive breast surgery and 28% of all respondents reported currently using the practice for aesthetic breast surgery. The most common reason cited by respondents for using fat grafting to the breast was as an adjunctive therapy to implant or flap surgery.
Fat grafting to the breast is a common procedure most often used in reconstructive operations. The increasing prevalence of fat grafting to the breast indicates a need for collection of clinical data and supports the establishment of a national prospective registry to track outcomes after aesthetic and reconstructive applications.
近年来，自体脂肪移植越来越受欢迎，尽管人们仍然担心该技术在乳房手术中的安全性和有效性。本研究旨在确定全国范围内乳房脂肪移植的趋势，并确定该手术的频率和具体技术，以提供更有力的数据支持。
向美国整形外科学会的 2584 名成员发送了一份电子问卷。变量包括脂肪移植到乳房的流行程度和应用。还评估了脂肪移植方案的组成部分。
在 2584 份问卷中，有 456 份完成。62%的受访者表示目前将脂肪移植用于重建性乳房手术，28%的受访者表示目前将该技术用于美容性乳房手术。受访者表示，使用脂肪移植到乳房的最常见原因是作为植入物或皮瓣手术的辅助疗法。
脂肪移植到乳房是一种常见的手术，最常用于重建手术。乳房脂肪移植的流行程度不断增加表明需要收集临床数据，并支持建立一个全国性的前瞻性登记处，以跟踪美容和重建应用的结果。
