Advancing Standardization in Fat Graft Survival Studies: Assessing the Superiority of Paraepididymal Fat Graft as a Donor Site.

Background: There is currently no standardization in the field of research on fat grafts in rats, which is one of the most popular topics in plastic surgery. The aim of our study was to demonstrate the effects of selecting paraepididymal fat grafts as the donor area on enhancing the reliability of fat graft studies.

Methods: In this study, 12 male Sprague-Dawley rats were used to obtain adipose grafts from both inguinal and paraepididymal regions.

An immunohistochemical and biomechanical evaluation of the effect of fat graft on tendon healing.

Aim: To investigate the efficacy of fat grafting in primary tendon healing through immunohistochemical and biomechanical examinations.

Material And Method: The study material comprised a total of 10 male Sprague-Dawley rats, each approximately 10 weeks old. All 10 rats were operated on bilaterally.

Effects of Oleuropein Oral Intake on Infected Fat Grafts: Experimental Study.

Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of oleuropein oral intake on infected fat grafts and fat graft survival.

Materials And Methods: 32 Wistar albino rats were divided into four groups: 0. none treated, 1.

Increased Total Antioxidant Capacity Value Improves Survival of Fat Grafts in Rat Model.

Background: Although studies aiming to increase fat graft survival continue, in this study, the authors aimed to investigate the effects of different antioxidants on total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and their effect on graft survival.

Methods: Thirty-two male Wistar rats were divided into four equally sized groups, including a control group and three antioxidant groups receiving either melatonin (10 mg/kg), zinc (2 mg/kg), or vitamins E and C (100 mg/kg). Autologous fat grafts (1.

Evaluation of the Effect of Metoprolol Dosage on Fat Graft Survival.

Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different metoprolol doses on fat graft survival.

Material And Method: A total of 10 Sprague-Dawley rats were used in the study. The dorsal regions of the rats were separated into four quadrants: right and left cranial, and right and left caudal.

Effects of Insulin, Metoprolol and Deferoxamine on Fat Graft Survival.

Background: The main problem faced with fat grafting is unpredictable resorption rates. Many substances have been reported to increase the survival of fat grafts. The aim of this study was to compare the effects of insulin, metoprolol and deferoxamine on fat graft survival.
