Introduction Thighplasty in patients with massive weight loss (MWL) is a challenge for plastic surgeons Usual surgical techniques have common complications –Bleeding –Infection –Bad scarring –Wound dehiscence –Seroma –Labial spreading

Objective To describe a technique called Boomerang thighplasty and verify its effectiveness to treat thigh skin excess in patients with massive weight loss.

Material and Methods 16 patients with MWL underwent Boomerang Thighplasty between March 2011 and August 2012 All patients were followed monthly On the 6 th month after surgery, patients were answered a satisfaction questionnaire.

Preoperative Marking A vertical, a diagonal and a transverse line 1 cm parallel to inguinal crease was drawn. To draw a semicircular flap, bisectrix was marked until it met the anterior oblique line. Bisectrix

Preoperative Marking A semicircle flap which radius was one third of bisectrix was marked. The triangular marking without the circular flap represents the boomerang-like skin excess resected. Radius Boomerang-like resection

Surgical Procedure Excess skin and subcutaneous were resected preserving deep fascia. The flap was not attached to the Colle’s fascia. Suction drains were placed.

Results There was no dehiscence, hematoma or infection. One patient presented seroma with satisfactory outcome. Based on questionnaire, patient’s satisfaction reached the average grade 25,8 ± 3,8 (86%) from a total of 30 points. Sensibility preservation, better mobility, ease in getting dressed and final cosmetic result presented the most positive data.

Results Patients (n)

Results Before surgery2 months after surgery

Considerations In order to reduce complications, this study describes a thighplasty technique with a boomerang-like resection. Final suture tension is reduced if a semicircular flap is preserved. We believe this implies lower complication rates and satisfactory aesthetic results.

Conclusion Boomerang Thighplasty appeared to be an easy and reproducible technique with low complication rates and high satisfaction for surgical treatment in patients with massive weight loss.
