cerebral infarction(FAT). None recovered vision. Ozturk et al [5] in North America reported 61 cases of facial vascular occlusion by fillers other than Fat.12 had immediate blindness.Based on the world-wide literature, it has been suggested to bear in mind the following golden rules to avoid/minimize the chances of inadvertent intravascular injection of the filler agent and subsequent serious effects [1]. Firstly, aspiration each time before injection which is the most important maneuver. Secondly as regards to the injected material, taking more care in cases of fat injections versus not-fat substances (fat as a filler has highest risk) and the use of vasoconstrictor with each procedure in appropriate doses. The other important domain is the nature of the needles used, it is advisable to use blunt and smaller guage needles to avoid vessel penetration. The volume injected has not to be more than 0.5ccper pass with use of gentle force at each injection.
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.
