Gluteal augmentation is used to improve the size and shape of the buttocks. Unlike other anatomical areas, such as the breasts, where there are classification systems for size and projection, no standardized methods for classifying gluteal size and shape exist. Patients seeking augmentation rely on photographs to communicate their desired result to surgeons. The authors' study objectively reviews this topic and proposes a novel classification system for the buttocks that can provide an organized framework for patients and providers.
A systematic of the literature was conducted on March 17, 2021, using various combinations of the following terms: "gluteal augmentation," "classification," "size," "gluteoplasty," and "Brazilian butt lift." All eligible articles were included for analysis.
The PubMed/MEDLINE searches yielded 49 articles and abstracts. After review, eight publications were chosen for analysis. All publications were found in plastic surgery journals, with the most common journals as follows: Aesthetic Surgery Journal ( n = 4), Clinics in Plastic Surgery ( n = 2), Annals of Plastic Surgery ( n = 1), and Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery ( n = 1). There are no articles in the plastic surgery literature that provide a standardized classification system for gluteal size determination.
The authors' study revealed the need for a standardized classification system for gluteal size and shape. Although the publications analyzed discussed various techniques for related procedures and provided ways to improve aesthetic outcomes, none presented a system for reproducibly classifying size and shape. By introducing a classification system, we hope to enable plastic surgeons to more accurately and efficiently discuss their patient's goals.
臀部增大术用于改善臀部的大小和形状。与其他解剖区域不同，如乳房有大小和突出度的分类系统，目前尚无标准化的方法来对臀部大小和形状进行分类。寻求增大术的患者依靠照片向外科医生传达他们期望的效果。作者的研究客观地回顾了这一主题，并提出了一种新颖的臀部分类系统，可为患者和医疗服务提供者提供一个有组织的框架。
2021年3月17日对文献进行了系统检索，使用了以下术语的各种组合：“臀部增大术”“分类”“大小”“臀成形术”和“巴西臀部提升术”。所有符合条件的文章均纳入分析。
PubMed/MEDLINE检索出49篇文章和摘要。经审查，选择了8篇出版物进行分析。所有出版物均来自整形外科学术期刊，最常见的期刊如下：《美容外科杂志》（4篇）、《整形外科学临床》（2篇）、《整形外科学年鉴》（1篇）和《整形与重建外科》（1篇）。整形外科学术文献中没有文章提供用于确定臀部大小的标准化分类系统。
作者的研究表明需要一个标准化的臀部大小和形状分类系统。尽管所分析的出版物讨论了相关手术的各种技术，并提供了改善美学效果的方法，但没有一篇提出了可重复分类大小和形状的系统。通过引入一个分类系统，我们希望使整形外科医生能够更准确、高效地讨论他们患者的目标。
