Knowledge of the mammographic appearance and evolution of patterns of fat necrosis in patients who have undergone breast fat injection may enable imaging follow-up of these lesions, reducing the number of unnecessary biopsies or additional examinations and avoiding possible delays in the diagnosis of breast cancer. Because calcifications in breast parenchyma can be expected after breast fat injection, in our opinion this technique for breast augmentation should not be performed in patients with a family history of breast cancer.
Fat injection into the nose as a refinement of rhinoplasty is a fast, easy, inexpensive procedure for obtaining regular and smooth contours on the nasal dorsum that lasts over time.
With this suspension suture technique, the authors were able to maintain the optimal position of the nasal tip, using the osteocartilaginous junction as a pillar to provide long-term stability of the nasal tip.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
