Answers
CLINICAL CONSIDERATIONS
1. What is the maximum safe dose of lidocaine used in tumescent solution for liposuction?
E. 35 mg/kg.
The answer is E, 35 mg/kg. The maximum safe doses for lidocaine without epinephrine and with epinephrine are 5 and 7 mg/kg, respectively. The vasoconstrictive property of epinephrine, slow infiltration, and relative avascularity of fat allow this value to be relatively higher.

CLINICAL CONSIDERATIONS
2. What symptom of lidocaine toxicity is observed first, at the lowest plasma concentration of anesthetic?
A. Tinnitus.
The answer is A, tinnitus, which occurs at the lowest plasma concentration of toxicity (3 μg/mL). Cardiac arrest occurs at a much higher plasma level (20 μg/mL), while tremors and coma occur between the two.

3. After patient stabilization, what is the first-line treatment for lidocaine toxicity?
B. 20% lipid emulsion.
The answer is B, lipid emulsion, which is bolused at a rate of 1.5 mL/g of lean body mass followed by a con­tinuous infusion of 0.25 mL/kg/min. Flumazenil is a benzodiazepine antagonist used for overdose. Methylene blue is an antidote for methemoglobinemia and diazepam is a benzodiazepine used to treat alco­hol withdrawal.

CLINICAL CONSIDERATIONS
4. What is the minimum volume of lipoaspirate during a single operation that requires overnight monitoring?
D. 5 liter.
The answer is D, 5 liter of lipoaspirate, which is defined as large-volume liposuction. Monitoring is necessary due to fluid shifts with a higher potential of volume overload. Patients with >5 liter of liposuction are also at higher risk of lidocaine toxicity and should be monitored appropriately.

CLINICAL CONSIDERATIONS
5. Compared with suction-assisted liposuction, patient undergoing ultrasound-assisted liposuction (UAL) are at
greater risk of which complication?
C. Thermal injury.
The answer is C, thermal injury, which can lead to burns. Thermal methods of liposuction lessen cannula resistance and reduce surgeon fatigue. Compared with power-assisted and suction-assisted techniques, UAL is associated with similar hematoma, seroma, and infection rates.

CLINICAL CONSIDERATIONS
6. Which wetting solution technique is defined by a 1:1 ratio of infiltrate to aspirate?
C. Superwet.
The answer is C, superwet technique. Dryliposuction uses no infiltrate and is associated with the greatest estimated blood loss. Wet liposuction uses approximately 200 to 300 mL of wetting solution, yielding a blood loss of 4 to 30%. Superwet liposuction is the only technique defined by a 1:1 ratio of infiltrate to aspirate while tumescent liposuction is defined by 1 mL of aspirate per every 3 to 4 mL of infiltrate, yielding the lowest esti­mated blood loss (Table 57.1). Subcutaneous clysis is not a described method that is commonly used.
Infiltrate may contain lidocaine, epinephrine, and/or sodium bicarbonate, depending on surgeon's
preference.

CLINICAL CONSIDERATIONS
7. What technique can help reduce the risk of creating iatrogenic contour deformities?
A. Cross-hatching.
The answer is A, cross-hatching. The use of multiple patient positions and multiple access incisions allows for a smooth and regular contour after liposuction. Larger cannulas suction a greater amount of fat per pass and are associated with contour deformities, as is superficial liposuction. Suction-assisted liposuction itself is not associated with creating contour deformities. Candy cane configuration is generally a more aggressive canula for liposuction and should be used in the proper plane to avoid contour deformities.

CLINICAL CONSIDERATIONS
8. What is considered the true endpoint of ultrasound-assisted liposuction (UAL)?
D. Loss of cannula resistance.
The answer is D, loss of resistance to probe advancement. Although the duration of the procedure and vol­ume of liposuction are both important factors in determining a patient's fluid balance, they are not consid­ered true endpoints. The appearance of lipoaspirate (especially if sanguinous) is often considered an accepted endpoint for standard suction-assisted liposuction. Symmetrical pinch test is considered an acceptable endpoint for suction-assisted or power-assisted liposuction.

D. 8–18 hours after surgery.
The safe dosage of lidocaine in liposuction is 35 to 55 mg/kg. Peak lidocaine levels are reported to be 8 to 18 hours after infiltration. Oftentimes, patients are discharged to home when peak levels occur.

CLINICAL CONSIDERATIONS
10. Compared with standard suction-assisted liposuction, what is a benefit of laser-assisted techniques?
A. Decreased postoperative ecchymosis.
The answer is A, decreased postoperative ecchymosis, as laser wavelengths can aid in photocoagulation of small vessels. Laser-assisted liposuction (LAL) is more costly and more time consuming given the addition of laser energy to the technique. Subdermal tissues are heated, leading to skin tightening but can also lead to thermal injury.

CLINICAL CONSIDERATIONS
11. A 43-year-old woman is requesting improved abdominal contour. She has had three children and on examina-
tion has lipodystrophy, excessive infraumbilical skin, and a moderate diastasis. Which contouring procedure would most effectively treat her complaints?
D. Lipoabdominoplasty.
The answer is D, lipoabdominoplasty, which can utilize liposuction to refine body contour after a standard abdominoplasty. Liposuction techniques alone are not appropriate as the patient has excessive skin, which will not be treated by liposuction alone. Cryotherapy may offer mild skin tightening and retraction but will not treat the patient's diastasis.
