OBJECTIVE: As one of the most commonly performed cosmetic procedures, liposuction is relatively safe. Bowel injury following liposuction is a rare but devastating complication, which necessitates hospital admission and surgical intervention. The authors highlight a case report describing the presentation, diagnosis, and management of a patient with bowel injury following liposuction.
CASE: A 58-year-old woman presented with abdominal pain, erythema, and discharge three days after 360-degree abdominal liposuction with concomitant fat grafting to bilateral buttocks at an outpatient surgery center. Bowel perforation was suspected after CT-scan revealed extraluminal gas in the abdomen and communication that traversed the peritoneum. Exploratory laparotomy was performed which demonstrated at least one site of distinct perforation of the small bowel and an area omentum noted to be inflamed, thickened and with a purulent rind. The patient underwent 20-cm small bowel resection and partial omentectomy temporarily closed with negative pressure wound therapy. After subsequent abdominal wall debridements the patient received ventral hernia repair with bridging mesh and abdominal closure.
CONCLUSIONS: While safe, elective cosmetic procedures are not without risk of serious and even fatal complications. Providers must be familiar with the presentation of bowel injury following abdominal liposuction to prevent delays in appropriate surgical and medical care.
