Article Synopsis
- Biopolymers are synthetic materials used as fillers but are not compatible with the body, potentially leading to adverse reactions and conditions known as foreign-body-induced human adjuvant disease.
- A study conducted in Bogotá, Colombia, involved 20 patients who had biopolymer removal surgeries, revealing significant inflammatory responses and signs that could complicate diagnosis, like cytoplasmic vacuolization in reactive adipocytes.
- It is advised that surgeons measure certain blood markers (lactate dehydrogenase, serum calcium, and parathyroid hormone) to evaluate complications, and that removing biopolymers surgically may help prevent further issues.
