POSTOPERATIVE PERIOD
7. After autologous fat augmentation, a patient experiences confusion, petechiae, fever, and respiratory distress.
How could this complication have been avoided?
E. Keeping the injection cannula parallel to the patient.
The patient in the vignette is experiencing fat embolus syndrome, a life-threatening complication that occurs when fat enters the bloodstream. The risk is increased when higher volumes of fat are injected, especially into muscle or near the piriformis due to its proximity to the gluteal vessels. Fat introduced into the inferior gluteal vein travels through the iliac veins to the inferior vena cava and then the lungs, causing respiratory distress and the unique clinical syndrome described in the vignette. The risk of fat embolus syndrome can be reduced by injecting smaller volumes subcutaneously and parallel to the patient. Adequate hydration should be maintained.

PERTINENT ANATOMY
1. Which of the follow can safely be excised in thinning of the abdominal wall flap?
C. Both the superficial and deep subscarpal fat.
The blood supply to the abdominal wall was initially described by Nahai and then further expanded on by Huger in 1979 with a classification system describing three zones of perfusion. The blood supply to the deeper fat (subscarpal) is distinct from the blood supply to the skin; therefore, it can be more easily excised when thinning the abdominal wall flap in an abdominoplasty. Conversely, thinning the superficial layer of fat may lead to vascular compromise of the overlying skin; however, this can be done safely using liposuction. Thinning of the deep fat can be done by direct lipectomy or via liposuction (Fig. 60.1). Additionally, various surgeons use a combination of direct lipectomy and liposuction to address the subscarpal and suprascar­pal fat for enhanced safety during lipoabdominoplasty.

2. Which of the following statements describes the anterior abdominal wall anatomy?
B. The rectus abdominis muscles are enveloped by distinct anterior and posterior rectus sheaths above
the arcuate line.
The arcuate line represents a transition point. Above the arcuate line, there are distinct anterior and posterior rectus sheaths. Below the arcuate line, the internal oblique and transversus abdominus join the external and internal obliques to form a single anterior rectus sheath with no posterior rectus sheath. The arcuate line is roughly halfway between the umbilicus and symphysis pubis.

3. Vascular zone I of the abdominal wall is supplied by which of the following?
A. Superior and inferior epigastric vessels.
The vascular supply to the anterior abdominal wall can be divided into three zones. Zone I is between the lateral borders of the rectus sheath from the costal margin to a horizontal line drawn between the two ante­rior superior iliac spines (ASISs); this area is supplied primarily by superficial branches of the superior and inferior epigastr ic systems. Zone II is below the horizontal line between the two ASISs to the pubic and ingui­nal creases; this area is supplied by the superficial branches of the circumflex iliac and external pudendal vessels. Zone III is superior to zone II and lateral to zone I; this area is supplied by intercostals, subcostals, and lumbar vessels (Fig. 60.2).

4. Leaving a layer of fat over the anterior superior iliac spine helps prevent iatrogenic injury to which of the
following structures?
D. Lateral femoral cuatenous nerve.
The lateral femoral cutanoues nerve innervates the skin in the lateral aspect of the thigh. To prevent injury, a layer of fat should be left over the anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS). Injury to this nerve can cause signif­icant pain, numbness, and dysesthesia in the hip and medial thigh (a condition known as meralgia para- esthetica)(Fig. 60.3).

6. Which of the following structures contributes to the major blood supply of the umbilicus?
B. Deep inferior epigastric artery.
The blood supply to the umbilicus has multiple contributions from the subdermal plexus, the ligamentum teres, the median umbilical ligament, and the right and left deep inferior epigastric artery. However, the major blood supply is via the deep inferior epigastric arter y system. The superior epigastric system is not a contributor to the blood supply of the umbilicus (Fig. 60.4).

8. When should the use of sequential compression devices, which are highly recommended for the prevention of
thromboembolic events, be applied/started?
A. Prior to induction.
For maximal benefit, sequential compression device (SCD) must be applied and started prior to induction of anesthesia. The mechanism of action of SCDs has been studied. The sequential application of external com­pression on the lower extremity is believed to increase pulsatile venous flow. This leads to improved emp­tying of the veins, thereby decreasing venous pressure resulting in an increase in arteriovenous pressure gradient and subsequent increase in arterial flow. The mechanical forces applied by the SCDs lead to shear and strain forces on the endothelial cells. This leads to enhanced antithrombotic, profibrinolytic, and vasodilatory effects, including the release of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA). The increase in tPA is believed to result from a decrease in tissue plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (tPAI-1).

9. In order to prevent postoperative deformity, the transverse abdominoplasty incision should be placed at least
______ from the top of the vulval commissure.
C. 5 cm.
Preoperative markings begin with identification of the pubic bone and the anterior superior iliac crest. The planned incision should be marked transversely at the level of the pubic bone. At least 5 cm must be left between this incision and the top of the vulval commissure to prevent postoperative deformity. The planned incision should extend laterally below the anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS). If possible, keep the incisions low in order to prevent visibility of the scar.

11. The use of progressive tension sutures results in which of the following?
B. Decreased tension on the incision and decreased dead space.
The use of progressive tension sutures helps advance the abdominal wall f lap onto the musculofascia, which in turn results in progressive tension to be exerted on each suture and away from the incision. Ultimately, progressive tension sutures help decrease tension on the incision and close dead space to pre­vent skin necrosis, hypertrophic scaring, hematoma, and seroma formation. Additionally, placement of pro­gressive tension sutures will increase operative time, although not usually to a significant degree.
