    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Regenerative Medicine

    Context:

    • Classical tissue expansion involves slow prosthesis inflation over weeks.
    • Large scars and cicatricial zones present reconstructive challenges.

    Purpose:

    • To describe and analyze the authors' experience with rapid, intraoperative tissue expansion.
    • To evaluate this technique for treating extensive scars and cicatricial areas.

    Summary:

    • The authors detail a novel operative technique for rapid tissue expansion.
    • This method achieves virtually intraoperative expansion of prostheses.
    • Postoperative results for large scars and cicatricial zones were analyzed.

    Impact:

    • Presents a significantly faster approach to tissue expansion compared to traditional methods.
  • Offers a potential improvement in managing large scar tissue and reconstructive challenges.
