Abstract:
Objective To assess effects of the different retention time and temperature of the tumescent fluid on surgical blood loss in tumescent liposuction.Methods 20 patients with localized fat deposits received tumescent liposuction and the blood loss were calculated and compared between two treated groups.Results The mean surgical blood loss in 20 patients was (50.27± 18.56) ml with range (21.42-77.26) ml.The blood loss in liposuction with 0.5 hour retention and no retention of tumescent fluids was (19.89±7.52) ml and (26.25±12.07) ml,respectively; the blood loss in liposuction with heated (37℃) and non-heated tumescent fluid (23℃) was (28.60±6.07) ml and (29.93±9.06) ml,respectively.Conclusions A half hour retention of tumescent fluid in subcutaneous tissue after injection could reduce the surgical blood loss and the blood loss amount does not increase in the usage of a pre-heated tumescent fluid.
