9.1 Introduction
9.1.1 Historical Background oftheProcedure
Dr. Gerald W.Johnson invented the Trans Umbilical Breast
Augmentation (TUBA) under General Anesthesia using
Saline Implants in October of 1991.
Dr. Gabriel H.Patino performed the rst known Trans
Umbilical Breast Augmentation with saline implants under
oral sedation and tumescent anesthesia with a modied Klein
solution in 2004. He presented it at the American Society of
Cosmetic Physicians meeting in 2014.
Dr Wen-Chi Huang performed the rst known Trans
Umbilical Breast Augmentation under General Anesthesia
using silicone lled implants with instruments and an endoscope for insertion in 2016. She reported an operating room
time exceeding 3 h, signicant bleeding and implant
rupture.
Dr. Gabriel H.Patino performed the rst known Trans
Umbilical Breast Augmentation under General and
Tumescent Anesthesia using Silicone implants manually,
without instruments and without an endoscope on July 20,
2021. The procedure was done in under 1h with minimal
bleeding and no implant rupture. He presented it at the
American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery virtual meeting on
February 1, 2021.
Ideal patient selection for this procedure
• Healthy female over 18 years old
• Ideally without breast ptosis
• Breast ptosis I and II can be improved with implants.
• Breast ptosis III mandates a breast lift.
• ASA class I or II
• Detailed complete pre-operative history and physical
exam.
• Pre-operative medical and or psychiatric clearance if
indicated.
• Pre-operative laboratory 1 week prior to surgery (CBC,
CMP, UA, HCG) Pre-Operative EKG for patients over 45
or patients with risk factors
9.2 Important Steps Prior toUndertaking
theProcedure
• Patient tries on and selects her own implants (Placed
within bra).
• Patient decides on the type of implant.
• Patient selects limits of nal ll volume (Saline Implants).
• Pre-operative worksheet is completed.
• Consent and Release form for personal choice of breast
implant size is completed and signed by the patient.
• Prelled silicone implants cannot be inserted via the
umbilicus (TUBA).
9.3 Short Discussion About Treatment/
Surgical Modalities
I have never used the endoscope. The proper plane is evident
by the feel of the tissues and upon ination of the sizers by the
tenting of the pectoralis major at the level of the axilla and the
almond shape of the breast for submuscular placement. A
rounder shape of the breast and no tenting of the pectoralis
major is expected with the subglandular placement.

9.4 Surgical Procedure: TUBA
Step 1: The Pre-operative markings are done with the patient
in the standing position. The sternal notch is marked following its U shape. The sternal borders and inframammary folds

Fig. 9.1 (a, b) Pre-operative marking of the midline, inframammary crease, and the dissection tracts
are marked. A mid sternal line is then drawn from the sternal
notch to the mid portion of the superior umbilical hood. A
line connecting the axillary apex to each side of the superior
umbilical hood is then drawn (Fig.9.1).
Step 2: First-the inltration is done with the modied
Klein solution (1000 ml of Normal Saline, 100 ml of 2%
Lidocaine, 2 ml of 1:1000 Epinephrine, 10 ml of 8.4%
Sodium Bicarbonate). The maximum dose of lidocaine for
tumescent anesthesia is 55mg/kg. If Patient is under general
Anesthesia, the maximum dose of lidocaine is 28mg/kg.
• The inltration is done with the Modied Klein solution
at the level of the inframammary fold at the intersection
of the markings for each tunnel. A 3mm incision is made
using a # 11 blade.
• Using a 3mm×15cm spray cannula to perform the hydro

dissection of the submuscular or subglandular pockets.
• Inltration under the muscle is evident by the lack of
resistance to the passage of the cannula, the almond shape
of the breast, and tenting of the pectoralis major at the
level of the axilla with progressive inltration.
• Subglandular inltration is noted by some resistance to
the passage of the cannula, the round shape of the breasts,
and no tenting of the pectoralis major at its insertion in the
axillary area (Fig.9.2).

• The tunnels are then inltrated in the subcutaneous fat
plane between the rectus fascia and the skin being very
careful to keep the inltrating cannula over the rib cage
and advancing only 2.5–5.0cm at a time. Never direct the
cannula toward the intra-abdominal or intrathoracic
cavities.
• DO NOT USE NEEDLES WHEN INFILTRATING THE
BREASTS.THIS CAN LEAD TO PNEUMOTHORAX
RATHER USE INFUSION HANDLES WITH ON/OFF
SWITCH (Fig.9.3).
Step 3: After the navel incision is made with a # 11 blade
all around the umbilicus, the subcutaneous tunnels are created with cone dissectors. The breast pockets are made initially with hydro dissection using the tumescent anesthesia
and subsequently the pectoralis major attachments are
detached using a right-angle blunt instrument. (Advancement
should be done in 4–5cm increments at a time in order to
prevent an improperly directed stroke from traveling any
great distance (Fig.9.4)).
Step 4: The tunnel dissection is rst started from the
umbilicus using the cone dissector (Fig.9.5) and the breast is
lifted for submuscular placement when the cone dissector is

passed across the infra mammary fold. The breast is not
lifted for subglandular placement.
Step 5: The test implants are prepared for insertion.
Once the pocket has been created either in the subglandular or submuscular plane, the adequacy is checked by using
sizers (test implants) which can be lled by air. The test
implants are inserted using Dr. Patino’s mammary implanter
(Fig.9.6) (Author’s preference as it is safer and easier to do),
the Johnson’s Endo tube or manual insertion.
The test implants are rst emptied of all air and folded in
such a way that they form a cigar shape with simultaneous
rolling from both sides. The tube to ll the air is kept in the
center so that when the sizer is lled with air it unfolds
(Fig.9.7).
The folded sizer (test implant) is now held with the Patino
Mammary Implanter and placed in the pockets created
(Fig.9.8).
Step 6: The test implants after placement are quickly
inated with air using the closed inltration system provided
by the implant manufacturer, to the patients’ desired size
which has been discussed previously (Fig.9.9).
Step 7: The patient is then placed in the semi-fowler position to observe both the breasts for symmetry. Checking the
implant pocket cranio-caudally and medio-laterally becomes
very important along with conrming the position of NAC
(nipple areola complex) which has to be centered on the
implant. Once this is conrmed, the sizers are inated by
25% more and left in place to achieve hemostasis.
Step 8: The breast implants are now taken and readied for
placement in the pocket by testing for air leaks in triple antibiotic solution (Bacitracin 50,000 Units, Cefazolin 1000mg
and Gentamicin 80mg). Vancomycin can be used instead of
Cefazolin for patients allergic to cephalosporins or
penicillin.

Step 9: The test implant is now deated and immediately
removed, one side at a time. The selected implant is inserted
in the same way as the sizer and described in step 5
(Fig. 9.10). Once placed the implant is inated, this time
using sterile saline to the desired amount (Fig.9.11), its position is checked and the connecting tube is pulled out. The
saline should be lled using a closed system and a 3-way
valve so that no air leaks into the implant thus preventing the
feeling of sloshing.

incision is closed with 4-0 Monocryl sutures. Steri-strips are
applied, and an island umbilical dressing is placed. No drains
are needed after this procedure. The pre- and postphotographs are shown which shows the natural shape that
can be achieved using this technique (Figs.9.12, 9.13, 9.14,
9.15, and 9.16).
