Article Synopsis
- The study assesses whether TissuGlu, a surgical adhesive, can be a safe and effective alternative to traditional drainage methods for managing post-operative fluid in breast reconstruction surgeries.
- The trial involved 58 female participants, focusing on comparing rates of seroma formation and overall patient satisfaction between those treated with and without drains post-surgery.
- Results showed a slightly higher seroma rate in the TissuGlu group (17%) compared to the drainage group (10%), but no significant statistical difference was observed; however, patient satisfaction was reported higher in the adhesive group.
Introduction: Reduction mammaplasty in patients with gigantomastia is challenging. The Double-Unit technique with a Superomedio-Central pedicle and inverted-T incision is the standard technique for reduction mammaplasty in our clinic. The aim of this study was to review our approach in cases with gigantomastia in comparison with the current literature.

August 1991
We transformed a clinical Staphylococcus epidermidis isolate with the Enterococcus faecalis transposon Tn917-carrying plasmid pTV1. Loss of plasmid replication was observed at 47 degrees C. Tn917 transposes efficiently and apparently randomly.
