Lipotranferences in post neurosurgical esthetic defects.

Background: There are numerous procedures in which, beyond adequate manipulation of the temporalis muscle and cranial closure, patients may present bone and muscle defects due to atrophy and consequent facial asymmetry, causing psychological discomfort and functional deterioration. The objective of our work is to combine the knowledge of plastic surgery and apply it to cranial reconstructions with fat transfers in post-neurosurgical patients, analyzing its results.

Methods: During the year 2022, 45 fat transfer procedures were performed for the correction of craniofacial defects, of which 29 were female and 16 were male.
