Tumescent anesthesia, initially developed as a safer and more effective alternative to general anesthesia in performing liposuction, is used extensively today for a wide array of surgical procedures performed by various specialties. The make-up of the tumescent solution is variable, and it has evolved significantly over the past 40+ years. Even prior to Jefferey Klein’s tumescent solution recorded in his article from 1987, “The Tumescent Technique for Lipo-Suction Surgery,” there were significant contributions paving the way to modern formulations.1 In this article, we attempt to provide the most comprehensive history and timeline documenting the evolution of tumescent solution to date.

Abdominoplasty Under Total Intravenous Anesthesia Significantly Decreases Deep Venous Thrombosis and Pulmonary Embolism Risk.

, 433 N Camden Dr #770, Beverly Hills, CA, 90210, USA.
Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is the most feared complications of abdominoplasty, and multiple studies in the plastic surgery literature have sought to prevent these complications. General inhalational anesthesia can increase the risk of VTE via a variety of mechanisms. This study evaluates whether performing abdominoplasties under total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) instead of general inhalational anesthesia can reduce the risk of VTE.

Objective: Aim: To compare the effectiveness of tumescent anesthesia and regional anesthesia under ultrasound guidance in terms of their impact on nociceptive and stress systems, as well as systemic hemodynamics, in patients with chronic venous disease of the lower extremities, undergoing surgical treatment.
Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: Fifty patients (average age 48 ±15 years; 19 [38 %] males and 31 [62 %] females) with chronic venous disease of the lower extremities, who underwent surgical treatment (endovenous laser ablation and miniphlebectomy on one limb), were examined. Twenty-five patients (main group) underwent surgery under femoral nerve block with 150 mg of lidocaine and sciatic nerve block (popliteal fossa) with 150 mg of lidocaine under ultrasound guidance.
Liposuction for Superficialization of Deep Hemodialysis Vascular Access: A Novel Application.
Plast Reconstr Surg Glob Open

Division of Nephrology, Department of Medicine, College of Medicine, University of Nebraska Medical Center, Omaha, NE.
Background: More than 65% of patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) use arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) for hemodialysis. The increasing incidence of comorbid ESRD and obesity (body mass index, >35 kg/m) precludes patients from kidney transplantation, resulting in a need for long-term, durable AVF access. Compared with traditional superficialization techniques for overlying adiposity, liposuction is minimally invasive and well-tolerated, allowing for earlier fistula use with lower complications.

Introduction: Inguinal hernia surgery, a common procedure worldwide, continues to develop to achieve minimal access and tension-free repairs. However, a universally accepted technique has yet to be developed. Our study introduces a new approach, a modified tumescent transabdominal pre-peritoneal (TAPP), to a low-cost setting.
